Seahawks QB Geno Smith exits with knee injury in 3rd quarter against Green Bay

SEATTLE (AP) — Seahawks quarterback Geno Smith left Sunday night’s game against Green Bay with a knee injury.

He was hit low by Packers linebacker Edgerrin Cooper, who rolled over Smith’s ankle. Smith limped off the field, throwing his helmet as he reached the sideline. He walked off the field a short time later, accompanied to the locker room by trainers.

The team said he had a knee injury and his return was questionable.

Sam Howell, who was acquired in an offseason trade with Washington, replaced Smith.
