Rams castoff could impact Seahawks special teams against Arizona | The News Tribune

Who knows how long Josh Forrest will last on the Seahawks’ active roster — or with the organization in general.

But for now, as long as D.J. Alexander is sidelined with an ankle injury, the second-year linebacker from Kentucky appears to have a role for at least the next game.

After the Seahawks sent fullback Tre Madden to injured reserve with a calf injury, they promoted Forrest to the active roster, just in time for the team’s NFC West showdown Thursday at Arizona.

Once that game is over, Seattle will have 11 days to figure out what to do with its fullback opening.
