Confirmed: Seahawks C Justin Britt Tore ACL / Done For Year

51

The Seattle Seahawks have lost their starting center, Justin Britt, for the rest of the year.

Britt was feared to have torn his ACL during last weekends win over the Atlanta Falcons. The tear was confirmed earlier today and Britt will undergo “major repair” per Pete Carroll.

This is a major loss for the Seahawks who have the NFL’s toughest remaining schedule.

Below is the message from Russell Wilson to Britt.

With less than 24 hours left before the trade deadline, the Hawk’s always active front office has time to pull off a trade if they choose. The young and talented RB Rashaad Penny’s name has been brought up in trade rumors. He potentially could be moved in a deal for another center.
