The Seattle Seahawks executed six roster moves on Wednesday afternoon, including placing cornerback Neiko Thorpe on the injured reserve.
Thorpe, a special teams standout, has been battling a hip injury and was inactive for the last two games. Coach Pete Carroll said Thorpe had been experiencing “athletic hernia symptoms” as of late.
To fill the empty spot on the active roster, Seattle has signed defensive end Jonathan Bullard.
Bullard was originally selected by the Bears in the third round of the 2016 NFL Draft and spent three seasons in Chicago. He was with the Cardinals last year and started six of his nine games played. Bullard was most recently a member of Arizona’s practice squad after he was cut during the initial trim-down of the initial 53-man roster.
On Wednesday, the Seahawks also signed defensive end Damon Harrison and two other to the practice squad.
