The Seattle Seahawks grinded out a 12-10 Week 1 victory over the Miami Dolphins on Sunday, but they didn’t emerge entirely unscathed.

According to a report by Bob Holtzman of ESPN, Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson is undergoing precautionary X-rays on his right ankle.

I"m told Russell Wilson is right now getting a precautionary x-ray on his right ankle. https://t.co/lGVwEdrFiV

Chris Wesseling of Around the NFL adds that Wilson suffered the injury when Dolphins defensive tackle Ndakumong Suh (of all people) stepped on his heel.

Suh stepped on Russell Wilson’s heel, twisting the ankle. Russ having trouble moving, can’t put weight on foot.

Wilson did say after the game that, despite some soreness, he should be fine, per Curtis Crabtree of ProFootballTalk.

"It feels a little sore but I"ll be alright." – Russell Wilson on his ankle.

The fifth-year signal caller is known for his durability, having not missed a game since he was drafted in 2012. With a Week 2 matchup against the Los Angeles Rams looming, hopefully Wilson can pour some Recovery Water on the ankle and be ready to go.

Petty Injures Shoulder; XRays Negative

The QB rotation for the final preseason game against the Philadelphia Eagles was scheduled to be split between Bryce Petty and Christian Hackenberg. That is what happened, but Hackenberg was called into action earlier than expected. Petty injured his shoulder after being tackled, a little late, on his touchdown pass. He never returned to the game after leaving the field.

Bryce Petty said he didn"t return to the sideline tonight because he was getting X-ray and also treatment.

The stat line on the night was really good for Petty. He went 4 of 6 passing with 87 yards and a touchdown. It completes a strong preseason for Petty, who made the Jets job much tougher when it comes to roster cuts. Here is a stat recap of the entire preseason for Petty.

 

 

 

 

 

 

The reports coming out after the game are saying that the X Rays were negative and Petty will undergo an MRI on Friday morning.

Bryce Petty said X rays on his right shoulder came back negative. MRI scheduled for tomorrow
