Seahawks sign tight end Michael Jacobson, waive receiver Darvin Kidsy

The Seattle Seahawks have signed tight end Michael Jacobson, a former Iowa State basketball player, and waived wide receiver Darvin Kidsy.

The Seattle Seahawks announced a couple of roster moves on Friday ahead of training camp practice. Seattle signed tight Michael Jacobson, who played college basketball at Iowa State. He’s listed as a tight end on the Seahawks roster.

Jacobson did play football in high school and was initially headed to Iowa State on a football scholarship but ended up at Nebraska where he played basketball for two years instead.

He ultimately ended up at Iowa State, though, and played two seasons on the basketball team before spending last year with the Kyiv-Basket of the Ukrainian Basketball SuperLeague.

To make room for Jacobson on the roster, the Seahawks waived wide receiver Darvin Kidsy.
