The Seattle Seahawks have made a pair of roster moves on Tuesday morning. First off, the team waived cornerback Artie Burns, who was activated to the 53-man roster for the Sunday Night Football game against the Green Bay Packers. However, Burns was made inactive prior to kick off.
Burns has been a Seahawk since 2022, but has rotated between injured reserve and the practice squad just as much (if not more) than actual time spent on the field. The 2024 season has been no different, as Burns was placed on injured reserve following Seattle’s Week 6 loss to the San Francisco 49ers and was only activated off IR last Wednesday.
Overall this season, Burns has recorded one tackle and two passes defended.
The second move the Seahawks made on Tuesday morning was releasing defensive end DeVere Levelston from the practice squad. Levelston was signed as an undrafted free agent this past spring from Southern Methodist University. The former Mustang recorded 90 total tackles (17 for a loss) and 11 sacks during his four-year collegiate career.
