Seattle Seahawks injury report: Key players on defense out against Jaguars

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - Several key players from the Seattle Seahawks' secondary are likely not playing this Sunday against the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Cornerback Devon Witherspoon is doubtful for the road trip against the Jacksonville Jaguars, out with a knee injury. Safety Julian Love is also not expected to play Sunday due to a hamstring injury.

Additionally, offensive tackle Josh Jones (ankle) and linebacker Derick Hall (oblique) are out. Another Seahawks cornerback, Tariq Woolen, was also listed as doubtful on the Seahawks injury report with a concussion.

The Seahawks defense is riddled with injuries ahead of a crucial matchup, sitting with a 3-2 record after dropping their recent home game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Meanwhile, the Jaguars are coming off a big Monday Night Football against Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs.

"That's the life we chose. It's unfortunate for those guys. Our guys work extremely hard and they put it on the line all the time and they play hard and play for each other, play unselfishly. And when those opportunities get taken from you as a player, it's a tough deal, but this is how it works," said Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald about the recent injuries.

However, there is some good news, as linebacker Ernest Jones IV and safety Nick Emmanwori were fully participating in practice after being on the injury report this week.

The Jaguars also had several limited participants in practice, notably defensive end Travon Walker, center Robert Hainsey and left guard Ezra Cleveland.
