The Seahawks lost rookie left guard Grey Zabel to a knee injury in Sunday's loss to the Rams, but a day later, head coach Mike Macdonald expressed optimism that the injury isn't a serious one.

"I'll say it's optimistic right now," Macdonald said on his weekly radio show on Seattle Sports 710AM. "The initial news is really positive, but let's get out of the fog here before I start making any declarations."

Macdonald went on to clarify that that assessment is based on initial testing done on the knee and not more complete imaging, which was happening Monday morning, so more definitive news on the first-round pick will come later.

Zabel was one of two players to exit Sunday's game early due to injury along with linebacker Tyrice Knight, who suffered a concussion.
