RENTON — Surgery Tuesday on prized Seahawks rookie receiver DK Metcalf’s right knee found “minimal’’ damage, coach Pete Carroll said Wednesday.
Because of that, Carroll continued to indicate Metcalf could be available for the start of the regular season Sept. 8 against the Bengals, but he also didn’t proclaim it will happen.
“We are going week to-week and see what happens,’’ Carroll said in his first comments since Sunday’s preseason loss at Minnesota. “There is no indication it is going to be a long return.’’
Carroll said the surgery revealed “minimal findings, so we have high expectations.
