The Seahawks waived five players Monday, reducing their roster to 78 players ahead of Tuesday’s deadline to establish a 53-man roster.
Waived Monday were cornerback Arquon Bush, tight end Griffin Hebert, receiver Tyjon Lindsey, tackle Jalen McKenzie and tackle Liam Ryan. Those moves come on the heels of Seattle waiving seven players on Sunday, meaning the roster now stands at 78 players one day ahead of Tuesday’s deadline.
Bush, Hebert and Lindsey are all undrafted rookies, while Ryan signed with Seattle last year as an undrafted free agent, spending time on the practice squad. McKenzie, the son of longtime NFL executive and former Raiders GM Reggie McKenzie also went undrafted in 2022 and spent time on Seattle’s practice squad.
After the Seahawks and other teams reduce their rosters to 53 players on Tuesday, they can begin forming a 16-player practice squad on Wednesday.
