The Seahawks have seen their defense get picked apart in the last two weeks by Ryan Tannehill and Kirk Cousins. They are looking to right the ship this weekend by getting after 49ers quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo.
The 49ers are coming off of a primetime loss to the Green Bay Packers. A win against the Seattle Seahawks would help them stay afloat in the competitive NFC West division.
Here is the injury report and the starting lineup for this week's matchup.

The Seahawks currently don't have any players officially designated to miss Sunday's game against the San Francisco 49ers. However, several players will have their status monitored to see if they will be active or inactive for the game.
Running back Rashaad Penny availability will be a game-time decision as he continues to deal with a calf injury. On Wednesday, tight end Gerald Everett was placed on the COVID-19 list, so his status is currently up in the air. If he cannot go, look for backup tight end Will Dissly to get the start.
Wide receiver Tyler Lockett has been nursing a hip injury and did not practice on Thursday, so he may also be a game-time decision for the Seahawks.
San Francisco 49ers
The 49ers have been hit hard by the injury bug this season, particularly at the running back position. Currently, the 49ers have officially designated three players as being inactive for the game on Sunday.
Defensive lineman Kevin Givens has officially been ruled out with an ankle injury. Running back JaMycal Hasty has also been ruled out of the game with an ankle injury as well. Cornerback K'Waun Williams has been ruled out of the game with a calf injury.
Cornerback Josh Norman, who left last week's game with a severe lung contusion, also has an ankle injury and is currently questionable for Sunday's game.
