Report: Seahawks' Russell Wilson Could Miss 'At Least a Month' with Finger Injury

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson reportedly suffered a ruptured middle-finger tendon during Thursday's loss to the Los Angeles Rams.

According to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler, Seattle is "bracing for" the star signal-caller to be out "at least a month and possibly 6-8 weeks." He added that Wilson is likely to need surgery to repair the tendon.

Wilson entered the 2021 season having never missed a regular-season start in nine NFL seasons. He started 144 out of a possible 144 games, giving him the longest active streak in the league.

That streak appears to be over now after Geno Smith had to replace him during the game against the Rams.
