The Seattle Seahawks received some good news on Monday when wide receiver Cade Johnson was released from the hospital after being diagnosed with a concussion. Johnson was injured during the team’s Week 4 game against the Miami Dolphins and was taken to the hospital for further evaluation.
The Seahawks have not released any details about the severity of Johnson’s injury, but they did confirm that he has been cleared to leave the hospital and is now in the NFL’s concussion protocol. This means that Johnson will have to pass a series of tests before he can be cleared to return to the field.
Johnson has been a key contributor for the Seahawks this season, catching 11 passes for 124 yards and one touchdown. He has also been a reliable target for quarterback Russell Wilson, who has praised Johnson’s work ethic and ability to make plays.
The Seahawks will hope that Johnson can make a full recovery and return to the field soon. In the meantime, they will rely on their other receivers to step up in his absence. With the team currently sitting atop the NFC West standings, they will need all hands on deck if they hope to make a deep playoff run.
The Seahawks will continue to monitor Johnson’s progress and provide updates as they become available. In the meantime, they will hope that Johnson can make a full recovery and return to the field soon.
