RENTON, Wash. -- The Seattle Seahawks fear running back Rashaad Penny will miss this weekend's game against the Tennessee Titans and possibly longer because of a calf injury, coach Pete Carroll said Monday.
Penny, the Seahawks' No. 2 running back behind Chris Carson, left their season-opening win over the Indianapolis Colts after seven snaps and two carries for 8 yards. Carroll said after the game that the team played it safe by pulling Penny when the calf tightened up, knowing wit had three other tailbacks available.
On Monday, Carroll called Penny's injury a calf strain.
