Seattle Seahawks running back Chris Carson appears to have avoided a major injury during the team's Week 3 matchup against the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday.
Carson reportedly only suffered a minor knee sprain in the 38-31 win, according to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero.
Sigh of relief for the #Seahawks: An MRI confirmed RB Chris Carson’s ligaments are intact and it’s just a minor knee sprain, source said. In fact, he’s got a chance to be ready for this week’s game at Miami.

The 26-year-old left the game late in the fourth quarter after having his leg twisted by Cowboys defensive tackle Trysten Hill, who is likely to be fined for his actions but not suspended.
