It took 10 days after Mychal Kendricks tore his ACL for him to be placed on injured reserve, but the Seattle Seahawks finally made that move Wednesday. In Kendricks’ place, tackle Chad Wheeler was promoted from the practice squad to the 53-man roster—likely a decision made due to the minor injury crisis Seattle has along the offensive line.
Wheeler’s promotion opened up a spot on the Seahawks’ practice squad, and it was filled Wednesday as well. Wide receiver Cody Thompson was brought back to the club, two months after a six-day stint was ended with his release.
