Saturday's Injury Report

The Seahawks are getting back at least one starter in their secondary for Monday's game against the Texans, and two more have a chance to return.

Cornerback Riq Woolen, who missed last week's win in Jacksonville due to a concussion, has no game status listed on Saturday's injury report, meaning he has cleared the protocol and is ready to play.

Cornerback Devon Witherspoon (knee) and safety Julian Love (hamstring), meanwhile, are both listed as questionable after missing the previous two games due to their injuries. Both players were able to practice this week, though on a limited basis.

Outside linebacker Derick Hall is out for a second straight week due to an oblique injury that occurred in Seattle's Week 5 game against Tampa Bay. Seahawks coach Mike Macdonald said Friday that Hall should be able to make it back after the bye week.

Reserve tackle Josh Jones, who has missed the past three games due to a high ankle sprain, is questionable.

For the Texans, receiver Christian Kirk was ruled out after injuring his hamstring in practice this week. Safety Jaylen Reed (knee) and defensive end Denico Autry (knee), who are both on injured reserve but have returned to practice, are listed as questionable.
