Geno Smith underwent imaging on his injured knee Monday, and it appears the Seahawks quarterback escaped serious injury.
The MRI showed no structural damage and no fractures.
“We’re fortunate. A lot of positive, optimistic signs coming out of the tests,” head coach Mike Macdonald said Monday, via Brady Henderson of ESPN. “Geno’s a beast, man. He’s in here working out in the morning, working through it. I know he’s still feeling it, but this guy’s tough as nails.”
Smith injured his knee on a low hit from Packers rookie linebacker Edgerrin Cooper in the third quarter. Smith did not return, playing 35 of 59 snaps in the 30-13 loss.
Smith went 15-of-19 for 149 yards and an interception.
The two-time Pro Bowler has completed 69.9 percent of his passes for 3,623 yards with 14 touchdowns and 13 interceptions this season.
