Injury HC: QB’s status for Week 6 unclear

Pete Carroll called it a bad sprain for Russell Wilson’s finger. Said it’s too early to tell what his availability will look like. They knew they needed to throw it to catch up and Wilson couldn’t throw, Carroll said. (ESPN – Brady Henderson)

Nerdy Football Analysis: The good news is that Wilson briefly returned to the game and tried to work through his injury on the sideline for most of the fourth quarter. However, he figures to deal with a fair amount of swelling if he is in fact dealing with a sprain. Wilson’s history suggests he’ll be ready to go against the Steelers in Week 6, but time will tell if this is a multi-week injury. If Wilson can’t suit up for the first time in his pro career, Seattle will turn to Geno Smith, who accounted for himself nicely after coming on in relief of Wilson in Week 5 against the Rams.
