Seahawks Open 2026 With 53-Man Roster and Early Practice-Squad Shuffle

Seattle finalized its 53-man roster and a 17-man practice squad for 2026, keeping most of last year’s core while adding depth at cornerback via the Avery Smith trade. Trevon Diggs was placed on the 17-man practice squad, and several veterans—Cody White, Jamie Sheriff, Noah Igbinoghene, D’Anthony Bell, Jalan Gaines—did not land on Seattle’s initial practice squad. Cody White later joined the Raiders’ practice squad. Expect ongoing roster tweaks before the Sept. 9 opener vs. New England as Seattle pursues its depth and flexibility for a potential title run, with post-cut analysis to follow on Field Gulls’ coverage and podcasts.
