The Seattle Seahawks have placed cornerback Coby Bryant on injured reserve, ending his season. Bryant had been dealing with a knee injury that he suffered in the team’s Week 7 game against the Arizona Cardinals.
Bryant had been a key contributor to the Seahawks’ defense this season, starting in all seven of the team’s games. He had recorded 24 tackles, two interceptions, and one forced fumble. His presence in the secondary had been a major factor in the team’s success this season.
The Seahawks will now have to look for other options to fill the void left by Bryant. Shaquill Griffin and Tre Flowers will likely take on larger roles in the secondary, while Akeem King and Jamar Taylor could also be called upon to provide depth.
The team is also expected to add a cornerback to their roster in the near future. With the NFL trade deadline looming, they could look to make a move for a veteran player who could help fill the void left by Bryant.
The loss of Bryant is a big blow to the Seahawks’ defense, but they still have enough talent to remain competitive. They will need to rely on their other defensive backs to step up and fill the void left by Bryant if they want to continue their success this season.
