Overview
- Seattle released cornerback Trevon Diggs as part of final 53-man roster cuts on Sunday, Aug. 30, and GM John Schneider said the team intends to bring him back on the practice squad.
- Because Diggs is a vested veteran he becomes an immediate unrestricted free agent after the cut, which gives other teams a window to sign him before any practice-squad deal is completed.
- Diggs signed a one-year deal with Seattle on Aug. 19 and recorded an interception in the preseason finale at Arrowhead, a brief on-field audition that helped his case but did not secure a roster spot.
- The Seahawks’ decision reflected durability and availability concerns: Diggs has played just 22 games over recent seasons and underwent multiple knee procedures including a 2023 torn ACL.
- Seattle’s roster adjustments also included placing RB Zach Charbonnet on reserve/PUP, and teams can start forming practice squads on Aug. 31 so Diggs could rejoin Seattle or sign elsewhere in the coming days.
