Spotted at OTAs
Wed, May 27, 2026, 3:06 PM
Knight (concussion) was spotted participating in Seattle's OTAs on Tuesday, Lindsey Wasson of HJNews.com reports.
Analysis: Knight sustained a concussion during the Seahawks' Super Bowl LX win over the Patriots, but he's now cleared protocol and returned to the field. Across 16 regular-season appearances in 2025, the UTEP product tallied 57 total tackles, including 2.0 sacks, and two forced fumbles. He'll likely operate as Seattle's top reserve inside linebacker during the 2026 season. |

Returns from injury
Wed, May 27, 2026, 3:01 PM
Kight (knee) participated in the Seahawks' OTAs on Tuesday, Lindsey Wasson of Journal-News.com reports.
Analysis: Kight finished Seattle's 2025 campaign on injured reserve with a knee issue, but his participation in Tuesday's practice indicates he has now fully recovered. The second-year pro from UCF will likely compete for one of the Seahawks' top reserve tackle spots as the offseason progresses. |

Back for OTAs
Wed, May 27, 2026, 2:57 PM
Cabeldue (knee) was spotted participating in Seattle's OTAs on Tuesday, Lindsey Wasson of Journal-News.com reports.
Analysis: Cabeldue was unavailable for the Seahawks' final six games (including playoffs) last season after sustaining a knee injury. However, his participating in Tuesday's OTAs suggests he's now moved past the issue. He's expected to play a depth role on Seattle's offensive line heading into the 2026 season. |

Robbie Ouzts Robbie Ouzts Returns to practice
Wed, May 27, 2026, 2:20 PM
Ouzts (neck) was a full participant during Tuesday's OTAs, Cameron Van Til of Seattle Sports reports.
Analysis: The second-year fullback from Alabama was sidelined for the NFC Championship Game and the Super Bowl last season due to a neck injury, but his participation in Tuesday's practice suggests he's moved past the issue. Ouzts contributed on both offense and special teams during his rookie campaign, appearing in 12 regular-season games and logging 259 total snaps (203 on offense, 56 on special teams). Now fully healthy, he's expected to play a similar role during the 2026 season. |

Irv Charles Irvin Charles Dealt to Seattle
Wed, May 27, 2026, 2:14 PM
The Jets traded Charles (knee) to the Seahawks on Wednesday in exchange for a 2028 conditional seventh-round pick, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Charles was sidelined all of last season due to a knee injury, but it now appears he's moved past the issue. The 28-year-old appeared in 13 games for the Jets in 2024, failing to haul in his lone target while playing 221 total snaps (212 on special teams, nine on offense). Now in Seattle, Charles will likely compete for another special-teams role ahead of the 2026 season. |

Kenny McIntosh Kenny McIntosh Back for training camp?
Wed, May 27, 2026, 2:09 PM
McIntosh (knee) is not participating in Seattle's OTAs but is hopeful to return in time for training camp, Bob Condotta of the Seattle Times reports.
Analysis: McIntosh missed all of the Seahawks' 2025 campaign due to a torn ACL suffered during training camp, but the hope is for him to return in late July. The Georgia product appeared in all 17 of Seattle's regular-season games in 2024, rushing 31 times for 172 yards and catching three of his four targets for 22 yards. Once fully healthy, McIntosh could play a larger role in a crowded Seahawks backfield that includes rookie Jadarian Price, Emanuel Wilson and Zach Charbonnet (knee), who is not expected to return until midseason. |

Zach Charbonnet Zach Charbonnet Looking at midseason return?
Wed, May 27, 2026, 11:41 AM
Charbonnet (knee) is realistically looking at a midseason return, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.
Analysis: Charbonnet suffered a torn ACL in the Seahawks' divisional-round win over the 49ers a little over four months ago and is fully expected to miss the start of the 2026 campaign. Starting the season on the reserve/PUP list would seem to make the most sense, and that would at least cost Charbonnet the first four games of the regular season. Rookie Jadarian Price, free-agent pickup Emanuel Wilson and George Holani will likely all see snaps out of the Seattle backfield while Charbonnet is sidelined. |

AJ Barner AJ Barner Sidelined at OTAs
Wed, May 27, 2026, 11:04 AM
Barner (undisclosed) is not participating in OTAs on Wednesday while recovering from what Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald alluded to as offseason procedures, Bob Condotta of the Seattle Times reports.
Analysis: Barner played through shoulder and ankle injuries last season, but he nonetheless suited up for all 17 regular-season games while totaling a 52-519-6 line on 68 targets. The 2024 fourth-rounder also operated as the TE1 for all three of the Seahawks' postseason games. Macdonald said Barner will "probably" be available for training camp and is "itching to get out there." With Barner sidelined for OTAs, however, 2025 second-round pick Elijah Arroyo has reportedly impressed and begun taking a step forward in his development. While Barner remains No. 1 tight end for Seattle's offense entering the 2026 campaign, it's possible Arroyo will earn an increased target share in Year 2. |

Tory Horton Tory Horton Recovery going well
Tue, May 26, 2026, 5:02 PM
Head coach Mike Macdonald told reporters Tuesday that there's a chance Horton (shin/groin) can "do some stuff toward the end of spring," John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Analysis: The 23-year-old from Colorado State missed the Seahawks' final 12 games last season (including playoffs) due to lower-body injuries, and it now appears his recovery is going smoothly. Horton had a promising start to his NFL career, catching 13 of 23 targets for 161 yards and five touchdowns in just eight regular-season contests. He also was an impactful special-teams contributor, tallying 238 punt-return yards and a touchdown. Once fully healthy, Horton will likely play a depth role in the Seahawks' receiving corps while operating as one of the team's top return men. |

Earns contract
Thu, May 14, 2026, 6:20 PM
Rudolph signed with the Seahawks on Thursday, John Boyle of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: Rudolph participated in the Seahawks' rookie minicamp and earned a contract with a strong performance. The undrafted rookie out of Toledo spent five seasons in college (five at Northern Illinois). Rudolph finished second on the team in his final year with 435 receiving yards, and he returned 18 kicks for 374 yards (20.8 average) and a touchdown. He'll compete for a depth role on the Seahawks this year. |

Signs with Seahawks
Thu, May 14, 2026, 6:13 PM
The Seahawks signed Rochelle on Thursday, John Boyle of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: Rochelle earned a contract after trying out with the Seahawks during rookie minicamp. After spending his first two seasons at Rutgers, Rochelle transferred to FCS Indiana State for his final two campaigns, recording 102 receptions for 1,388 yards and 13 touchdowns. He impressed as a returner with 28.1 yards per kickoff return, scoring a 95-yard touchdown in his senior season, too. It will be difficult to contribute as a returner with Rashid Shaheed in the mix in Seattle, but Rochelle will push for a reserve roster spot through the offseason program and training camp. |

Inks deal with Seattle
Tue, May 5, 2026, 3:43 PM
The Seahawks signed Fowler to a one-year contract Tuesday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: The deal is worth up to $5 million. Fowler will turn 32 years old later this summer and is headed into his 12th season out of the University of Florida. He appeared in all 17 regular-season games with the Cowboys last season, making 11 starts, but recorded just 3.0 sacks as a sub-package edge rusher while playing 32 percent of the defensive snaps. In Seattle, he'll provide depth behind DeMarcus Lawrence, Uchenna Nwosu and Derick Hall. |

Signs with Seahawks
Fri, May 1, 2026, 6:57 PM
Seattle signed Wentz as an undrafted free agent Friday.
Analysis: Wentz began his collegiate career with Old Dominion before transferring to Kansas. As a senior with the Jayhawks, he tallied 16 catches for 258 yards and two touchdowns. Wentz is 6-foot-2, 205 pounds and is a former defensive back who plays with plenty of physicality. He may need some time to further develop as a wideout, making him a longshot to open the season on Seattle's NFL roster. |

Lance Mason Lance Mason Secures deal with Seattle
Fri, May 1, 2026, 6:46 PM
Mason signed with the Seahawks as an undrafted free agent Friday.
Analysis: Mason is coming off a senior season with Wisconsin during which he caught 30 passes for 398 yards and four touchdowns. Prior to that, he spent his first three campaigns at Missouri State. Mason is 6-foot-3 with reliable hands, but he isn't particularly quick or agile. Seattle's tight-end corps is led by AJ Barner and Elijah Arroyo, and Mason may be headed for a spot on the practice squad. |

Getting look from Seattle
Fri, May 1, 2026, 6:33 PM
The Seahawks signed Briscoe as an undrafted free agent Friday.
Analysis: Briscoe ended his collegiate career with Cal Poly by reeling in 43 catches for 779 yards and seven touchdowns. He stands 6-foot-2 and has demonstrated good linear speed for a wideout. Briscoe is a longshot to make Seattle's initial NFL roster but could be given a chance to develop on the practice squad. |

Harrison Bryant Harrison Bryant Joining defending champs
Wed, Apr 29, 2026, 7:14 PM
Seattle signed Bryant on Wednesday, Ari Horton of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Analysis: The details of the deal are unknown at this point, but Bryant fits with the Seahawks' recent approach of seeking out hard-nosed tight ends. 2024 fourth-rounder AJ Barner, 2025 second-rounder Elijah Arroyo and veteran Eric Saubert are all likely to make Seattle's 53-man roster to start the 2026 season, but there's a decent chance the team keeps four tight ends, meaning one of Bryant or Nick Kallerup could potentially make the opening roster too. |

Selected by Seattle
Sat, Apr 25, 2026, 6:10 PM
The Seahawks selected Dansby in the seventh round of the 2026 NFL Draft, 255th overall.
Analysis: Not that it's unusual for late seventh-round picks, but Dansby was well off the NFL Draft radar after playing three seasons at San Jose State and one at Arizona, all of them unremarkable. At a listed 5-foot-11, 185 pounds, Dansby didn't participate in pre-draft athletic testing, so his skill set and tools grade both are question marks at best. Perhaps the Seahawks saw something in Dansby's special teams upside. |

Snagged by Seattle
Sat, Apr 25, 2026, 5:36 PM
The Seahawks selected Eastern in the seventh round of the 2026 NFL Draft, 242nd overall.
Analysis: Eastern was a full-time starter at defensive tackle in each of his last three seasons at Minnesota. He was named an All-Big Ten Honorable Mention in 2025 after posting 38 total tackles, including 2.5 sacks, one forced fumble and one pass defense across 13 games. Eastern has an intimidating 6-foot-5, 315-pound frame that makes him an intriguing development project for the Seahawks, who will certainly work with the 23-year-old on his technique and instinct to develop him into an NFL-caliber defensive lineman. |

Selected by Seattle
Sat, Apr 25, 2026, 5:23 PM
The Seahawks selected Fuller in the seventh round of the 2026 NFL Draft, 236th overall.
Analysis: Fuller (6-foot-1, 200 pounds) spent the first two years of his collegiate career at the FCS level before transferring to Toledo in 2022, and it wasn't until his fourth season with the Rockets that he stepped into a starting role. A safety-turned-cornerback, Fuller boasts a desirable frame for his position and logged a solid 4.49 40-yard dash at the NFL Combine, and starting his career behind outside corners Devon Witherspoon and Josh Jobe is sufficient to allow the rookie seventh-rounder time to develop. Fuller's combination of size and speed could help him carve out a role on special teams early on. |

Selected by Seahawks
Sat, Apr 25, 2026, 3:49 PM
The Seahawks selected Henderson in the sixth round of the 2026 NFL Draft, 199th overall.
Analysis: Henderson (6-foot-1, 185 pounds) might be a better bet to make a roster than most other sixth-round rookie receiver selections, because Henderson is fully expected to stand out as a special-teams gunner. Henderson was a known special-teams presence even while he was a backup wideout at Alabama, but Henderson managed to log an encouraging season of wideout production in his one year at Kansas. The selection of Henderson might be a bad sign for 2025 seventh-round pick Ricky White, who was also largely selected for his special-teams ability. |
