NFL News: Seahawks: QB Geno Smith’s knee looks OK after hit

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Geno Smith’s knee looks like it’s “structurally” OK after a low hit and awkward landing in Sunday night’s loss to the Green Bay Packers.

Seahawks coach Mike Macdonald said Smith’s status for Week 16 is unclear until additional testing takes place.

Smith left in the third quarter of Seattle’s 30-13 loss to the Packers and did not return.

“It was severe enough for him not to come back in the game. We’ll do all the tests tomorrow and kind of figure it out as we go. But right now, structurally it looks like it’s OK, but we’ve got to get it imaged and all that stuff,” Macdonald said after the game.

Smith was hit in the right leg by Packers linebacker Edgerrin Cooper on a first down throw, knocking Smith back and causing his knee to hyperextend. No penalty was assessed because both of Smith’s feet were in the air at the point of contact, according to a rules analyst.

Smith was able to limp off the field. He was replaced by Sam Howell, who went 5-for-14 for 24 yards and an interception.

Smith was 15 of 19 for 149 yards and an interception before leaving. Smith is completing 69.9 percent of his passes for 3,623 yards and 14 touchdowns against 13 INTs on the season.

The loss dropped Seattle out of a playoff spot at 8-6 with three games remaining, including one against now NFC West division leader Los Angeles Rams in Week 18. The Seahawks host the Minnesota Vikings (11-2) next week.
