The Seattle Seahawks earned their second win in as many weeks on Sunday when they beat the Houston Texans. Unfortunately, Seattle did sustain a number of injuries throughout the contest.
Coach Pete Carroll provided a number of injury updates during his postgame press conference.
“We should make mention of that Gavin Heslop had the horrible play on the sidelines over there,” Carroll said. “He was really hurting, and our hearts and love and everything go his way. He’s probably going to stay in town tonight as far as we know right now.”
The defensive back, who was just promoted from the practice squad on Friday, will remain in Texas overnight, likely to undergo leg surgery.
Another defensive back also sustained an injury on Sunday, cornerback D.J. Reed.
“He got hit in the chest, so he had a chest contusion,” Carroll explained. “I don’t know the seriousness or anything about that. He got whacked pretty good.”
Finally, defensive tackle Bryan Mone also came up sore in Week 14.
“Bryan sprained his knee,” Carroll confirmed. “Let’s just keep it at that for now until we know more.”
Additional updates should be available on Monday when Carroll is slated to address the media.
