Revolving door at CB spins again as Seahawks waive Flowers

RENTON, Wash. (AP) — The revolving door at the most unsettled position for the Seattle Seahawks has now spit out their starting cornerback from Week 1.

Tre Flowers was released Wednesday as the Seahawks struggle to find the right combination in the secondary.

Flowers started the first three games but was benched in favor of Sidney Jones after Minnesota dissected Seattle’s secondary in Week 3. Coach Pete Carroll raved about Flowers’ performance in earning the starting job during training camp but didn't have many answers Wednesday on why his standing changed so quickly.

“I think it was time for a change for him as well,” Carroll said.
