RENTON, Wash. (AP) — The Seattle Seahawks cleared a chunk of salary cap space by releasing safety Tedric Thompson and tight end Ed Dickson on Tuesday.

The releases were confirmed by two people with knowledge of the moves who spoke to The Associated Press on the condition of anonymity because the team has not yet announced them.

Both moves were expected after each player seemed to fall out of favor with the Seahawks and will clear more than $5 million worth of cap space for Seattle. According to Overthecap.com, Seattle was down to $11.
