LANDOVER, Md. (AP) — Washington Commanders linebacker Leo Chenal was carted off the field in the second quarter with a neck injury.

Chenal went down with 6:38 remaining in the half on a run by Seattle's Emanuel Wilson. The cart was brought out, and eventually the whole Washington team came off the sideline to surround him.

As Chenal was being carted off, fans began chanting his name. He was able to give a fist pump as he neared the tunnel.
