RENTON, Wash. -- Seattle Seahawks coach Pete Carroll and safety Quandre Diggs on Wednesday said they'd like to see a close re-examination of whether NFL stadiums should exclusively use natural grass.
The ongoing conversation about the safety of playing on artificial turf versus natural grass has been raised anew after Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf and Los Angeles Chargers cornerback J.C. Jackson suffered knee injuries during Sunday's game at SoFi Stadium, both on non-contact plays.
SoFi Stadium uses an artificial surface.
"I think we definitely need to look at this really seriously in the offseason again," Carroll said when asked about the grass/turf debate.
