Love (hamstring) was placed on injured reserve Saturday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
A setback with Love's lingering hamstring injury has landed him a stint on the injured reserve. According to Boyle, Love was placed on injured reserve to make room on the roster for safety elevation Jerrick Reed II. With Love missing an extended period, Ty Okada will need to continue to play a key role in the Seahawks' secondary for the foreseeable future.

Seahawks' Julian Love: Optimism for Week 9 return
Rotowire
Head coach Mike Macdonald relayed Monday that Love (hamstring) should be available for Week 9 against the Commanders on Nov. 2, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
A hamstring injury has prevented Love from playing in four of the Seahawks' last five games. He was a limited participant in practice leading up to Week 7 against the Texans, so the additional rest from the bye should put the 2019 fourth-rounder in line to return for Week 9. Love's return will likely result in Ty Okada seeing a decrease in defensive snaps.
