Seahawks Sign 15 Practice-Squad Players to Futures Deals to Open Offseason

The signings secure developmental depth for the 2026 roster.

Overview

  • Seattle announced reserve/futures contracts for 15 players from its 2025 practice squad, including RB Cam Akers, RB Velus Jones Jr. and WR Ricky White III.
  • The agreements take effect at the start of the new league year and count toward the 90-man offseason roster rather than the current cap or 53-man roster.
  • WR Montorie Foster and RB Jacardia Wright were on practice-squad injured reserve and are included among the signees.
  • Practice-squad veterans not retained on futures deals were Quandre Diggs, Shaquill Griffin, Shemar Jean-Charles and Courtney Jackson.
  • Backfield decisions loom with Zach Charbonnet rehabbing an ACL tear and Kenneth Walker III unsigned, and Klint Kubiak’s move to the Raiders leaves an offensive coordinator vacancy.
