The Seattle Seahawks have quickly filled their vacant roster spot after wide receiver Cody Thompson was waived.
ESPN’s Brady Henderson reports that linebacker Jon Rhattigan has signed to the 53-man roster, having spent the beginning of this season on the practice squad. Rhattigan used up his allotment of three practice squad elevations, so this was the only way of playing for the Seahawks again this season. Rhattigan has yet to play a regular season defensive snap for Seattle, but he’s carved out a nice role on special teams.
Seattle now has a vacancy on the practice squad, which for all we know could be filled by Thompson if he clears waivers.
