Seahawks RB Penny has surgery on finger — Seattle Seahawks first-round draft pick Rashaad Penny had surgery Wednesday to repair a broken finger. Head coach Pete Carroll said the surgery went well and that Penny is not expected to miss more than a couple of weeks. “He can already move it and it’s not going to be in a cast or any of that kind of stuff, so he’s in pretty good shape,” Carroll said. “We got a great report on it. He’s not going to be out very long at all.” The rookie running back out of San Diego State was injured during pass-blocking drills Monday and left the field with trainers. Carroll said he believes Penny can still be ready for the start of the regular season.
