Doug Baldwin Has MCL Sprain
6 years agoSeattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll said wide receiver Doug Baldwin (knee) is dealing with an MCL sprain after leaving the game in Week 1 against the Broncos. Baldwin didn't even record a catch in the season opener and was a bust for his fantasy owners. The silver lining here is the injury was to his right knee. Baldwin injured his left knee in training camp. The bad news is that he might be unlikely to suit up in Week 2. Wide receiver Tyler Lockett had a big game with Baldwin out and would be the unquestioned No. 1 wideout for however long Baldwin is out. Rookie tight end Will Dissly had a surprisingly huge game, too, and will be a waiver wire target heading into next week. Brandon Marshall stepped up as the No. 2 wideout behind Lockett in the loss to Denver. Baldwin owners should be preparing as though he'll be out for multiple weeks. That's bad news for quarterback Russell Wilson.
