The Seattle Seahawks made several roster moves on Wednesday, which included a pair of reported additions becoming official.
Record-chasing JSN could be NFL’s first 2,000-yard receiver
Here’s a breakdown of what the Seahawks announced Wednesday.
Signed to active roster
• Running back Cam Akers
Akers comes to the Seahawks after being released on Saturday by the Minnesota Vikings, Seattle’s next opponent. For a full story on the Akers addition, click here.
Signed to practice squad
• Safety Quandre Diggs
• Running back Myles Gaskin
• Wide receiver Jimmy Holiday
The reunion with Diggs, who was a three-time Pro Bowler during a five-year tenure with the Seahawks from 2019-23, was reported Tuesday to be in the works. The Seahawks released Diggs after the 2023 season, and he signed with the Tennessee Titans in August 2024. Diggs was waived earlier this month by the Titans. Click here for more on Diggs’ return.
Gaskin, a Lynnwood native and O’Dea High School and UW Huskies product, returns to the Hawks practice squad after being cut last Thursday.
Holiday is an undrafted rookie from Lousiana Tech. He was released by the Kansas City Chiefs earlier this month.
Promoted from practice squad
• Cornerback Shaquill Griffin
• Linebacker Patrick O’Connell
Griffin, who was a Pro Bowler for Seattle in 2019, returned to the Seahawks for the first time since 2020 this offseason and has appeared in two games.
O’Connell has appeared in at least one game for the Seahawks in each of the past three seasons, including three games this year. The 26-year-old Montana product had nine tackles and a sack while playing a career-high 42 defensive snaps filling in during last Sunday’s win over the Titans, a game that both Ernest Jones IV and Tyrice Knight missed due to injury.
Placed on injured reserve
• Linebacker Chazz Surratt
Surratt suffered an ankle injury on an early Seahawks kickoff return last Sunday and did not return to the game. A five-year NFL veteran, he has appeared in 11 games this season for Seattle.
Designated to return to practice
• Defensive end Rylie Mills
A 2025 fifth-round NFL Draft pick out of Notre Dame, the 6-foot-5, 290-pound Mills has been on the non-football related injured reserve while recovering from a torn ACL he sustained during his senior season with the Fighting Irish.
Waived
• Cornerback Derion Kendrick
The 25-year-old Kendrick has appeared in 10 games for Seattle this year and has two interceptions and five passes defensed.
Kendrick has reportedly been claimed by the NFC West-leading Los Angeles Rams, reported NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero on Wednesday afternoon. The 8-3 Seahawks are one game behind the 9-2 Rams in the standings.
Released from practice squad
• Tackle Logan Brown
A 24-year-old product of Wisconsin and Kansas, the undrafted Brown has been with both the Seahawks and Cleveland Browns practice squads this year.
The Seahawks will host the Minnesota Vikings in a 1:05 p.m. game Sunday at Lumen Field. Radio coverage on Seattle Sports begin at 10 a.m. with the pregame show.

Projected Lineup: Feb. 26 vs. Seattle | St. Louis Blues
The St. Louis Blues are back in action as they host the Seattle Kraken on Thursday at Enterprise Center (7 p.m., FanDuel Sports Network Midwest, 101 ESPN).
It will be the team’s first game since Feb. 4, and Jim Montgomery said the squad is ready to get back to work.
“Yeah, I think everybody is,” the head coach said. “I mean, you can tell. Guys were anxious today, but it’s like ‘enough of practicing against each other, it’s time to play a game.’”
Captain Brayden Schenn, who missed Wednesday’s practice with an illness, took the morning skate and is expected to play. Dylan Holloway (ankle), who has played just one game since Dec. 12, will make his return to the lineup as well.
Robert Thomas has taken a leave of absence due to a personal matter. He’s expected to return to the team on Friday.
Additionally Jack Finley will make his Blues debut. Finley – who is the son of former Blue Jeff Finley and was born in St. Louis – was claimed off waivers by the team on Feb. 7.
“It was a dream of mine to play for this team,” Finley said. “It was a big part of my childhood, big part of my family’s life. So definitely full-circle moment and proud to be a Blue.”
Jeff, who played defense for the Blues from 1998-2004, will be in the building Thursday night to see his son don the jersey he wore for so many years.
“He was excited,” Jack said about his dad. “Maybe more excited than me. He loved this organization, loved this city… He’s excited to be back.”
