Doug Baldwin finally put up big numbers in a loss to the Tennessee Titans on Sunday, but the Seattle Seahawks receiver had to leave the game in the second half after he suffered a groin injury. Fortunately, the injury does not sound serious.
Ian Rapoport of NFL Media reports that Baldwin will undergo an MRI, but initial tests came back positive.

Baldwin caught 10 passes for 105 yards and a touchdown before exiting the game. He was targeted 15 times by Russell Wilson, which was two more than the first two games of the season combined.
Seattle’s offense finally showed some signs of life on Sunday, but it was the defense that ended up being a disappointment in the 33-27 loss. Baldwin was by far Wilson’s favorite target in 2016, catching 94 passes for 1,128 yards and seven scores.
