Seahawks place Mike Morgan on IR, add new player to 53-man roster

This could have been Mike Morgan’s year, but alas it has come to an end after four mostly-nondescript games — The Seattle Seahawks have placed the sixth-year linebacker on injured reserve with a sports hernia.

Seahawks today put LB Mike Morgan on injured reserve. And waived OL Terry Poole off of IR.

The team could use the special exception to bring back Morgan after Week 8 (he could practice after Week 6) but given his production this season — two tackles, roughly 25% of defensive snaps at the SAM position — they might need to use that on a different player.
