SEATTLE -- Seahawks coach Pete Carroll said tight end Jimmy Graham is out for the season after tearing the patella tendon in his right knee Sunday in the game against the Steelers.
"We're gonna miss the heck out of him for the rest of the season," Carroll said.
The injury will require surgery, Carroll said.
Graham ran a fade route down the right sideline against Steelers cornerback Antwon Blake. Seahawks QB Russell Wilson threw his way, but the ball was underthrown, and Graham went down awkwardly on the incompletion.
The training staff put an air cast on Graham's right leg before he was carted off the field.
