It’s well known that there’s no love lost between the 49ers and Seattle Seahawks.
But defensive tackle Jarran Reed made it really, really clear he really, really doesn’t like San Francisco ahead of their NFC divisional-round matchup on Saturday at Lumen Field.
“For one, we get a team that we don’t like,” Reed told reporters Tuesday of the upcoming playoff game against the 49ers. “Me personally, I don’t like nothing about them. Just get a chance to go at them again. We don’t do too much talking, you know, we let our past talk, but we know what’s at stake.
“It’s about getting out there between them lines and hitting it head on. Man on man, mano y mano.”
"For one, we get the team we don't like. Personally, I don't like anything about them. We don't do too much talking. We know what's at stake. They know what's at stake."

To be fair, it sounds like Reed is doing a little bit of talking.
In 16 career games against the 49ers since 2016, Reed has recorded 46 tackles — 17 solo — and 6.5 sacks.
It’s clear the Seahawks lineman is eager for Seattle’s rematch with its NFC West rival after the two teams split their regular-season series 1-1, with the 49ers winning in Week 1 but dropping the Week 18 game — along with the No. 1 playoff seed and division title.
Now, No. 6-seeded San Francisco seeks an upset in Seattle — and contrary to Reed’s comments, there already has been a bit of trash talk.
Seahawks linebacker Uchenna Nwosu taunted Fred Warner in an Instagram comment Sunday, telling the 49ers star, “The road ends here brother.” The comment was in response to a post celebrating the 49ers’ wild-card win over the Eagles by Warner, who is eyeing a return from injury in the NFC Championship Game, should San Francisco defeat Seattle and advance.

And after the two teams faced off in Week 18, Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba called Deommodore Lenoir a fan following the 49ers cornerback’s trash talk in the lead-up to the game.
"I definitely heard it. It's hard to respond back to all my fans. But, you know, I knew that we were going to see him today and take care of busines"

Like we said, no love lost — and it certainly doesn’t seem like the Seahawks can say they don’t do too much talking.
