Seahawks' Rashaad Penny scores first TD of season, aided by stiff-arm

HOUSTON - Rashaad Penny's four seasons with the Seattle Seahawks have been a massive disappointment, with one injury after another and only occasional glimpses of what made him the 27th overall pick in 2018.

His 32-yard touchdown run Sunday was one of those glimpses.

Penny got around the right edge, broke free with a stiff-arm and raced to the end zone for his first score since December of 2019. It gave the Seahawks a 10-7 lead over the Houston Texans at the end of the first quarter.

Penny made his second career start Sunday and ripped off runs of 9 and 13 yards on Seattle's opening drive.
