NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) \u2014 Seattle coach Mike Macdonald said Sunday night that rookie linebacker Bud Clark<\/a> will miss months with a broken right ankle, while offensive lineman Mason Richman<\/a> suffered his own \u201clong-term injury\u201d in the Seahawks\u2019 preseason loss to Tennessee. <\/p>\n

\u201cTwo guys that we love, that play our style of ball, that are our type of guys,\u201d Macdonald said of Richman and Clark. \u201cTeammates love \u2019em, great teammates, great guys, great football players. They have great futures. It\u2019s a heartbreaker, honestly. We\u2019ve had three heartbreakers this week, which is tough.\u201d<\/p>\n

Seahawks wide receiver Jake Bobo<\/a> was carted off the field Friday from Seattle\u2019s joint practice with the Titans and was placed on injured reserve Saturday. <\/p>\n

Richman went down on the opening drive and was helped to the sideline after getting his right leg checked while laying down on the field. Macdonald said they have to figure out what the specific issue is, but he called it a \u201cmajor injury, a long-term injury.\u201d<\/p>\n

On Seattle\u2019s first defensive play, Clark broke his right ankle and Macdonald said he\u2019ll miss months. Trainers put his leg in an air cast, and players from both teams came up to the rookie before he was carted off the field. Clark was Seattle\u2019s second-round pick and 64th overall out of Texas Christian. <\/p>\n

Linebacker Connor O\u2019Toole said Clark\u2019s injury is the type that almost takes the life out of a game. <\/p>\n

\u201cJust to know what he\u2019s going to go through and the pain that he\u2019s in, it\u2019s just bigger than football at that point I feel like,\u201d O\u2019Toole said. \u201dAnd your heart breaks for your brother, so it takes a minute to regroup as a team. We just lift him up and he\u2019ll be in our prayers.\u201d<\/p>\n
