Arr, mateys! In the scrimmage betwixt the Seahawks and Vikings, young Cade Johnson, a lad in his third year, was taken from the field in a cart and carried to a ship's infirmary. 'Tis said he may have suffered a knock to his noggin, a peculiar ailment known as a "concussion."
In a comical 17th century pirate language, the tale of Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Cade Johnson's injury is told. The scallywag was carted off the field on a stretcher during a preseason game against the Minnesota Vikings, possibly suffering from a dreaded concussion. Arrr, the head coach, Pete Carroll, revealed the news, claiming that Johnson was transported to Harborview Medical Center for his noggin and neck, as a precaution, me hearties. The Buccaneers of the Seahawks received "positive" updates on Johnson's condition after the mishap occurred during a kickoff in the second quarter. The scuttlebutt suggested that there were no findings, but Captain Carroll suspected that Johnson may have been concussed. Johnson was taken to the medical tent, where the team's training staff and medical personnel attended to him. He was then placed on a backboard, loaded onto a stretcher, and carried across the field and up a tunnel, just as a pirate ship sails into the unknown. The Seahawks be sayin' that the findings were already quite positive, and they be taking every precaution to ensure the lad's safety. It be reported that Johnson got injured after a 17-yard return on the kickoff, but he was able to walk off the field on his own before being evaluated in the medical tent. As of Friday morning, there be no update on the lad's condition, but the Seahawks be claimin' that he be "stable" as of Thursday night. Johnson, a young buccaneer in his third season, had been signed by the Seahawks after goin' undrafted out of South Dakota State. Last season, he managed to make two receptions over three games.
