Seattle Seahawks waive injured former Longhorn Tyrone Swoopes

The NFL preseason officially began last week with the annual Hall of Fame Game taking place on Aug. 1 between the Denver Broncos taking on the Atlanta Falcons. But in Week 2 of the preseason, the Broncos will be taking on the Seattle Seahawks. The Seahawks were the team that housed multiple former Texas Longhorns football players, including former quarterback Tyrone Swoopes.

However, the Seahawks converted Swoopes from quarterback to more of a tight end role in the past few years. Swoopes entered the 2019 preseason and Training Camp looking to make his way up the depth chart at tight end.
