Knee sprain ends Mario Manningham's season

Knee sprain ends Manningham season

The San Francisco 49ers have confirmed that Mario Manningham will miss the rest of the season after sustaining a serious knee sprain in Sunday's loss to the Seattle Seahawks.

The wide receiver has torn his posterior and anterior cruciate ligaments.

The 26-year-old will miss the 49ers' final regular season game against the Arizona Cardinals and the playoffs.

Manningham was part of the New York Giants' Super Bowl-winning team last season.

He is the third San Francisco player to sustain a season-ending injury in the last month, joining Kendall Hunter and Kyle Williams.
