RENTON, Wash. (AP) — It only took a couple of weeks of seeing what the combo of Chris Carson and Rashaad Penny could produce for the optimism over the Seattle Seahawks' postseason chances to rise.
And in one play last week against the Los Angeles Rams, that one-two punch was gone.
Penny went down with an ACL injury on his first offensive touch of the game, an injury that will require surgery and ended his season. While the Seahawks believe they have the options in place to replace Penny’s production, there will be a change going forward from a game-plan that seemed to be working well for Seattle.
