While the San Francisco 49ers were battling their own injury issues, the Seattle Seahawks got hit with a devastating blow, losing safety Earl Thomas to a leg fracture. Thomas was defending a touchdown pass before he went down.
The injury itself is awful for the Seahawks, but it gets interesting with what happens as Thomas was carted off:
That would probably be unsportsmanlike conduct, but it wasn’t aimed at the Cardinals. As he makes the gesture, the cart takes him by the Cardinals sideline. It was in fact directed at his own team, and appeared to be toward Pete Carroll.
