Seahawks defensive end Michael Bennett left Sunday’s game in the third quarter with a knee injury.

Bennett was injured after being cut-blocked by Falcons offensive tackle Jake Matthews, and Bennett wasn’t happy about it.

After the game, Bennett told reporters that Matthews diving at him was “a scary b-tch ass move” and said, “If you have to dive at someone else’s leg, you are a little b-tch.”

It appeared that Matthews’ helmet hit Bennett squarely on the left knee before Matthews rolled to the ground. Bennett was helped off the field and didn’t return.
