Seahawks announce release of two players from their practice squad

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.
