Seahawks' Bennett exits, checked for concussion

SEATTLE -- Seattle Seahawks defensive end Michael Bennett left Thursday night's game in the fourth quarter and is being evaluated for a possible concussion.

Bennett collided violently with Los Angeles Rams running back Todd Gurley on a run play with 13:09 left in the game. He was slow to get up, and teammates immediately called for members of the Seahawks' medical staff.

They evaluated Bennett on the sideline and then took him into the locker room.

Bennett, an eight-year veteran, missed five games earlier this season with a knee injury.
