While the Seattle Seahawks avoided their usual serious injury to a key player on the road against the Arizona Cardinals, they did not come away unscathed.
Linebacker Cullen Gillaspia, who plays exclusively on special teams, suffered a knee injury during a Seahawks punt in the 3rd quarter of last Sunday’s 31-21 win. He did not return to the game and according to Pete Carroll, Gillaspia will need surgery.
