The Seahawks have ruled CB Riq Woolen (ankle) and DT Byron Murphy (hamstring) out for Thursday night's game against the 49ers. Edge Uchenna Nwosu (thigh) is also out and expected to land on IR ahead of the game. Additionally, Seattle lists Edge Derick Hall (foot), Edge Boye Mafe (knee), and S Julian Love (hamstring) as questionable vs. San Francisco. Love played through the same issue in Week 5, missing just one of 71 snaps. But HC Mike Macdonald calls him a game-time decision on the short week. Macdonald said Wednesday he's "confident" Hall and Mafe will play. Each practiced in full Wednesday.

This defense would have been challenged by San Francisco even at full strength. Missing their top corner and lead edge player obviously won't help.
I'll update Love's status -- and confirm Mafe and Hall -- when inactives come out about 90 minutes before kickoff.
Make sure you have a replacement option for Love if you're hoping to start him in your IDP lineup this week.
