Seahawks inch closer to 53 with more cuts

Saturday the Seattle Seahawks closed out the 2023 preseason with a loss to the Green Bay Packers, and then Sunday the front office got right to work making the first of the roster cuts necessary to pare the roster down to 53 players.

The cuts continued on Tuesday, with a report from Aaron Wilson of KPRC2 indicating that the Seahawks had moved on from five additional players, beyond the initial seven that were in the official announcement from the team Sunday.
