Sherman forced from game vs. Cardinals with heel injury

Seattle Seahawks cornerback Richard Sherman left Thursday's game against the Arizona Cardinals with a heel injury and is doubtful to return.

Sherman landed awkwardly while attempting to make a tackle and walked off the field slowly.

The star cornerback was later shown on the broadcast appearing to tell teammates that he tore his Achilles. He was also seen giving quarterback Russell Wilson a hug while he remained on the sidelines.

Prior to leaving the game, Sherman recorded four tackles and a pass deflection.

It would be a crushing loss for the Seahawks if Sherman misses extended time with the injury. He's been named to the Pro Bowl in four consecutive seasons.
