LS Derek Rackley was released for poor performance, and replaced with LS Boone Stutz. This is the second time in as many years that Rackley has been let go in favor of Stutz. It happened in Atlanta last year before the start of the season.
T Kyle Williams earned a spot on the practice squad when T/G Ray Willis went down with a knee injury. He should keep his place at least until Willis returns.
The Seahawks lost FB Mack Strong and RB Alvin Pearman for the season. The team will now lean heavily on FB Leonard Weaver. Weaver is a decent runner and run-blocker. The concern is his pass protection. That is probably the motivation behind adding 35-year-old Fred McCrary, instead of someone like Josh Parry.
CB Kevin Hobbs has been elevated from the practice squad to the active roster with Josh Wilson nursing an ankle injury. As soon as Wilson is healthy, Hobbs should be back on the practice squad (likely at the cost of LB Cameron Jensen).
When Hobbs goes back to the practice squad, the Seahawks should look to add another running back that can contribute on special teams and get some carries if need be.
