Seahawks make poaching of Commanders rookie running back official
Field Gulls • • sports
Key Points:
- The Seattle Seahawks decided not to sign veteran running back Joe Mixon to their practice squad after he failed a physical.
- The team signed Robert Henry Jr. off the Washington Commanders' practice squad, providing depth at running back due to injuries and performance issues with other players.
- To accommodate Henry, the Seahawks waived safety AJ Finley, who had been promoted to the active roster earlier due to injuries in the secondary.
- Running back Jacardia Wright was moved to practice squad injured reserve, creating an open spot on the practice squad that the Seahawks have yet to fill.
- Ty Okada's full participation in practice suggests he may return to the lineup soon, potentially by Week 5 against the San Francisco 49ers.
