The Seattle Seahawks surrounded wide receiver Tyler Lockett as he received treatment on his knee following a scary-looking injury.
It goes to show what a respected player Tyler Lockett is that when the Seahawks receiver stayed down on the field for a long time after twisting his knee, members of both teams took a knee on the field.
Lockett appeared to fumble while being tackled with his knee turning in scary fashion.
While replay review overturned the fumble and gave the ball back to Seattle, all attention was on Lockett and his health.
Most of the Seahawks were on the field and standing around Tyler Lockett as he got looked at. Russell Wilson and Lockett’s fellow receivers were closest by, on their knees. Lockett just walked off.

Tyler Lockett injury update: The Seahawks WR returned to action
After a few minutes, Lockett was able to assuage a lot of fears by walking off the field under his own power.
Incredibly, Lockett actually made it back on the field before the end of the game. Whatever went wrong with his knee, it clearly wasn’t severe enough to sideline him for long.
It was quite an emotional swing for the Seahawks.
