Seahawks announce release of two players from their practice squad

Fans should expect a couple of players to be returning to the active roster soon.

The Seattle Seahawks front office was busy yesterday. They hosted several free agent defensive backs for visits and also cleared some room on their practice squad.

On Tuesday the team announced that running back Godwin Igwebuike and linebacker Christian Jones have been released from the practice squad.

Jones has played in several games for Seattle this season but is out of practice squad elevations. The Seahawks also have two open spots on their active roster, so it’s possible they will re-sign Jones there.

There may not be room, though. Fans should expect a couple of players to be returning to the active roster soon. Running back Travis Homer has missed the last four weeks with a significant rib injury but he’s now eligible to return from the injured reserve list and is expected to practice this week. Also second-year cornerback Tre Brown (on injured reserve) may not be far behind.

Here’s the team’s full updated 53-man roster jersey number.

Here’s the team’s full updated 53-man roster jersey number.

Seahawks: Updated 53-man roster by jersey number going into Week 6

Here is the team’s 53-man roster by jersey number going into their Week 6 matchup with the Cardinals.

Seahawks: Updated 53-man roster by jersey number going into Week 3

Here is the team’s updated 53-man roster by jersey number going into Week 3.

The Seattle Seahawks have made a bunch of changes to their roster since they announced their initial 53. Jamal Adams, Tyler Ott and a few others are on injured reserve, several new faces are now on board and a couple players have changed numbers. Yesterday, the team elevated a couple defenders from the practice squad, as well.

Let’s get reacquainted with this group. Here’s the team’s updated 53-man roster by jersey number going into Week 3.

Pete Carroll says his expectations for the 2022 Seahawks are ‘very high’

That confidence is an essential character trait of any championship competitor. Then again, it also doesn’t win football games.

Competing at this level for a long period of time requires a certain mental makeup. For all their differences, Seahawks coach Pete Carroll and former franchise quarterback Russell Wilson had that one essential element in common: an unfailing irrational confidence occasionally spilling over into toxic positivity.

Case in point: pretty much everyone who isn’t a die-hard Seattle fan is predicting a rough 2022 season for this team. (And even some of them are keeping their expectations for this year realistic). As you might expect, Caroll isn’t one of them. Speaking with reporters after yesterday’s practice, Caroll insisted he’s very excited about these Seahawks and his expectations are very high.

That confidence is an essential character trait for any championship competitor. Then again, it also doesn’t win football games.

To some extent the rather-large men in the trenches still determine the outcome, but as Carroll would say the ball is everything and it’s tough to compete in a sport when the guy you’re giving the ball is on the bottom end of the talent pool.

Until either Geno Smith or Drew Lock prove literally all of the experts wrong and play like a true starting QB, this team’s ceiling will remain low.
