SEATTLE -- Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Cade Johnson was taken off the field on a stretcher and transported to a hospital to be evaluated for possible head and neck injuries after going down in the team's preseason opener Thursday night at Lumen Field.
According to the Seahawks, Johnson is in stable condition and was being taken to Seattle's Harborview Medical Center as a precaution.
Johnson briefly appeared unstable while getting up after he was tackled on a 17-yard kickoff return about four minutes into the second quarter against the Vikings. He walked off on his own power and was taken in the medical tent for evaluation.
