Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Doug Baldwin's knee injury could force him to miss most, if not all, of the preseason, sources told ESPN.
Doctors are hopeful and confident that he will be able to return for the start of the regular season, the sources said.
Doctors are uncertain exactly how or when Baldwin injured the knee. The injury has lingered some, but Baldwin is known for gutting out workouts and he could have aggravated the condition, a source said.
Baldwin has been prescribed rest for the maintenance of the knee before it is re-evaluated later this month. He always has been known to push himself, and if doctors tell him to rest for a week, he's been known to be back in half the time.
