Safety Joey Blount is on the active roster.

He played for the Seahawks last season as an undrafted rookie out of Virginia. He played in 11 games last season, logging 175 special teams snaps and collecting eight tackles and a fumble recovery.

Defensive lineman L.J. Collier is the other former Seahawk. He is on injured reserve recovering from a torn biceps. He probably is done playing for this season.

He was a former Seattle first-round pick out of TCU and he played four seasons for the Seahawks. He signed with the Cardinals this offseason.
