Seahawks WR Jaron Brown leaves game with knee injury, won’t return

The Seattle Seahawks are in the midst of their biggest matchup of the regular season Sunday, battling against the San Francisco 49ers for the NFC West crown.

Seattle will be playing the remainder of the night without wide receiver Jaron Brown, who was injured during the first quarter and has been ruled out of the game.

Brown was targeted twice Week 17 but did not log a reception.

The Seahawks has entered the contest down a receiver already as Malik Turner was inactive Sunday as the result of a concussion.

In Brown’s absence, rookie wide receiver John Ursua should get some looks against the 49ers. Ursua was selected this year in the seventh round of the NFL draft out of Hawaii. He led the NCAA in touchdowns last season.

Coach Pete Carroll is expected to provide an injury update during his postgame press conference.

This story is still continuing to develop.
