RENTON, Wash. (AP) — Running back and former All-Pro Leon Washington has finished his first extensive work in full pads in a Seahawks practice 10 months after a gruesome leg injury.
The former New York Jets dynamo told coach Pete Carroll before Friday’s practice he was ready for full participation.
Washington suffered a compound fracture in his leg last October during a Jets-Raiders game. Some initially thought his career was in jeopardy.
Seattle traded for him in April. He had been limited in the first six days of training camp.
