Seahawks' Ty Okada: Five tackles, INT in SNF victory
Rotowire
Okada recorded five tackles (two solo) and one interception in the Seahawks' win over the Commanders on Sunday night.
Okada made his fifth start of the season against Washington and has played all 278 defensive snaps across Seattle's last four contests. Julian Love (hamstring) was placed on injured reserve last Friday, paving the way for Okada to remain the starter in the immediate future. On the season, Okada is up to a career-high 32 tackles (21 solo), including 1.5 sacks, and four pass breakups, including the one pick, on 66 percent of the defensive snaps.

Seahawks' Ty Okada: Logs first solo sack
Rotowire
Okada compiled nine tackles (six solo), including 1.0 sacks, during the Seahawks' 27-19 win over the Texans on Monday.
Okada was one of four Seahawks players to play all 76 defensive snaps in Monday's win. He recorded the first solo sack of his three-year NFL career late in the third quarter, when he came on a blitz to take down C.J. Stroud for an eight-yard loss, which resulted in the Texans punting the ball on the next play. Okada has started in four of the Seahawks' last five games, but he would likely revert to rotational role in the secondary and as a contributor on special teams following the Week 8 bye if Julian Love (hamstring) is able to play in Week 9 against the Commanders on Sunday, Nov. 2.

Rotowire
Okada recorded nine tackles (seven solo) in the Seahawks' win over the Saints on Sunday.
With Julian Love (hamstring) and Nick Emmanwori (ankle) missing Week 3 against New Orleans, Okada made the start at safety and played all 73 defensive snaps after playing a combined 15 defensive snaps across Weeks 1 and 2. Okada will likely revert to his special-teams role once Love and Emmanwori return to health.
