Seahawks running back Rashaad Penny hoping to stay healthy

RENTON, Wash. (AP) — Rashaad Penny was quick to address the ongoing issue of his ability to stay healthy and available for the Seattle Seahawks.

He’s really tired of finding himself on the injury report.

“I really don’t go out there to just miss games. I don’t come in here to miss games, miss practice. I really try to be available,” Penny said Friday. "But sometimes your body says no. And unfortunately my body has been saying no to me a lot.”

Penny is hoping for a run of good health beginning this week. He was designated to return to practice from injured reserve this week by the Seahawks with the expectation he will be added to the active roster ahead of Monday’s matchup with New Orleans.
