It’s a difficult thing to secure a roster spot with the Seattle Seahawks or any other NFL team. Training camp rosters get cut nearly in half before the regular season gets started, and with just a few weeks and three preseason games to make a statement, there isn’t enough opportunity to go around.

But the guys who stick on the roster earn it, especially the ones taking up those final 10-15 spots. Those are the players who have to be useful in a variety of ways, be it swing lineman or special teams production.

One of the players likely to be in that section of the roster layout has to be much more versatile since the rookie in front of him on the depth chart has a stranglehold on their already dying position.
