Seahawks' WR Branch leaves Steelers game with sprained foot.
Sunday, October 07, 2007
PITTSBURGH (AP) Seattle wide receiver Deion Branch sprained his right foot and was forced to leave the Seahawks' game against Pittsburgh on Sunday.
Branch's injury came during the second quarter and left quarterback Matt Hasselbeck without his most reliable receiver on a day the Seahawks had little offense, punting on six of their first seven possessions as Pittsburgh opened a 14-0 lead.
Branch had 20 catches for 329 yards and one touchdown in Seattle's previous three games, including 130 yards on seven catches the week before against San Francisco.
Branch, traded to Seattle early last season, had a 60-yard TD catch early in New England's 41-27 victory over Pittsburgh in the January 2005 AFC championship game. He had 16 receptions for 277 yards and two touchdowns in his previous three games against the Steelers, all while with New England.
