Seahawks S Bud Clark out for season with ankle injury

Key Points:

• Seattle Seahawks safeties Bud Clark and wide receiver Jake Bobo, along with offensive lineman Mason Richman, were placed on injured reserve Tuesday and will miss the entire 2026 season due to major injuries sustained during preseason games and practices.
• Clark, a second-round pick in the 2026 draft, suffered a broken ankle in a preseason game, while Bobo sustained a serious right knee injury during joint practice; both injuries are considered significant losses for the team's defense and offense respectively.
• The Seahawks face depth challenges in their secondary, with other key players like Rodney Thomas II sidelined due to injury and second-year nickelback Nick Emmanwori recovering from offseason ankle surgery but expected to be ready for the season opener.
• To bolster their secondary, Seattle recently signed former Dallas Cowboys cornerback Trevon Diggs on a one-year deal and is expected to finalize a deal with former Detroit Lions cornerback Terrion Arnold, despite Arnold's ongoing legal issues.
• In response to injuries, the Seahawks also signed offensive tackle Derrick Graham, safety Tysheem Johnson, and running back Justin Jones, while waiving running back Anthony Hankerson to adjust their roster.
