Seattle Seahawks running back Rashaad Penny will miss the rest of the season after suffering a left ACL injury in Sunday night's loss to the Los Angeles Rams, coach Pete Carroll said Monday afternoon.
Carroll said he has not heard about the MRI results but that the doctors "could tell it's a significant injury."
Penny went down in obvious pain on the Seahawks' first drive after gaining 16 yards on a screen pass.
Penny had started to come on of late. After spending most of his first season and a half playing sparingly behind Chris Carson, the 2018 first-round pick saw an uptick in his usage the previous two games, playing a combined 65 offensive snaps to Carson's 70.
