Julian Love Injury Update: What It Means for the Seahawks
Julian Love Injury Update
Pro Bowl safety Julian Love has officially been ruled out for the remainder of the game with what the Seahawks are calling a thigh injury. Love suffered the injury at some point in the third quarter.
Impact on Seahawks Defense
- Seattle’s injury-plagued defense is already without:
- Byron Murphy
- Leonard Williams
- Uchenna Nwosu
- Boye Mafe
- Jerome Baker
- Now, Julian Love adds to the list, increasing the pressure on the defensive line.
- K’Von Wallace, the third safety, is expected to take on more responsibilities.
Wallace has been fairly strong this season, with five solo tackles and one forced fumble in limited play. As the game progresses, the Seahawks are in trouble with the Lions up 35-20.
Geno has been working magic on the offensive side of the ball, but the second and third-string defensive front is getting pushed beyond their capabilities. It’s going to take everything they have to stop Detroit’s rushing attack in the fourth quarter.
