Julius Jones bruised but not broken
Posted by Danny O'Neil
Mora clarified the injury during his radio show on KIRO-FM Monday morning.
The bruised chest caused bleeding into Jones' lungs, and he remained in Arizona last night at the hospital after the team left.
"It wasn't a rib. It's a bruise causing bleeding in his lungs," Mora said, according to a summary on the team's official Web site. "It doesn't appear to be anything real serious. It's serious obviously or he wouldn't be in a hospital, but it's something he'll recover from quickly.
"We're certainly thinking of him and wishing him the best. It's tough when you have to leave a guy behind in the hospital. That weighs on everyone's minds."
Jones suffered the injury while blocking a blitzing linebacker in the first quarter of Sunday's game in Arizona. He carried only twice before suffering the injury. In his place, Justin Forsett rushed for 123 yards, a career-high.
