What happened: Mike Macdonald disclosed that Bobo was injured last week while addressing reporters. The setback comes during Seattle's 2026 preseason preparations.

By the numbers: Bobo caught three passes for 13 yards in Seattle's Aug. 15 preseason game.

What to watch: Seattle's next injury-status and roster updates will show how the team handles Bobo's absence as the preseason closes.
