Russell Wilson Trips Over His Own Lineman, Falls Back for Safety vs. Falcons

The Seattle Seahawks had a rough go of it against the Atlanta Falcons on Saturday at the Georgia Dome. 

Seattle had multiple mishaps and errors throughout the game, with this move early in the second quarter setting the stage for the Seahawks to lose their lead and trail Atlanta heading into the final frame.

With Seattle at its own 4-yard line, rookie lineman Rees Odhiambo tripped his quarterback at the snap. The miscue threw Wilson so severely off balance that he stumbled backward into the end zone for a safety.

The play cut Seattle's lead to 10-9, and it had a hard time recovering.
