Breaking: Seahawks Quandre Diggs Suffers Dislocated Ankle and Broken Fibula

The Seahawk’s season-ending  38-30 win over the Arizona Cardinals was bittersweet. Sweet because the win saw the hawks finish a disappointing 7-10 season with a two-game win streak. The bitterness is due to the gruesome injury to All-Pro Bowl Safety Quandre Diggs early in the fourth quarter . The leg injury was so bad the television broadcast elected to not show replays.

Players from both teams took a knee while trainers  Diggs right foot was put in an air cast, and he was carted off the field.
