Cody White Back on the 53-Man Roster

Seattle re-signed wide receiver Cody White to the active roster from their practice squad. This marks another rotation for White, who’s been bouncing between the two units all season. He was active in Week 1 against the 49ers, logging five snaps on offense and another six on special teams, but had since returned to the practice squad.

White is a sixth-year veteran who understands this system and brings a level of polish as a depth piece. His ability to contribute on special teams makes him even more valuable, especially during weeks like this with short turnarounds and lingering injuries.

To make room for White, the team waived safety Jerrick Reed II. Reed had just been promoted from the practice squad ahead of Sunday’s blowout win over New Orleans, where he notched six defensive snaps and a hefty 16 on special teams.

Running Back Shuffle: Herbert In, Wright to IR

In the backfield, Seattle added some experience to the practice squad by signing veteran running back Khalil Herbert. A 2021 sixth-round pick, Herbert has produced nearly 1,800 rushing yards and eight touchdowns across three seasons, mostly with the Bears. After brief stops with the Bengals and Colts this past offseason, he now gets a shot to carve out a role in Seattle.

Meanwhile, undrafted rookie Jacardia Wright was placed on the practice squad injured reserve after sustaining a foot injury in Sunday’s win. Wright had been elevated to the active roster for that game-with Zach Charbonnet dealing with a foot issue-and chipped in five carries for 20 yards. His absence opens the door for Herbert to step in and potentially make an impact if depth is needed again this week.

Injury Report Holds Steady

No changes came to the Seahawks’ injury report from Monday to Tuesday. The team held a walkthrough rather than a full-speed practice, so these reports are still considered estimations. That said, we’ll get clearer answers on Wednesday when Seattle releases its official game status designations ahead of Thursday night’s NFC West matchup with the Cardinals.

Here’s Tuesday’s full injury report:

Did Not Participate

• FB Robbie Ouzts (ankle)
• OT Josh Jones (ankle)

Limited Participation

• DE Leonard Williams (elbow, shoulder)
• CB Devon Witherspoon (knee)
• S Julian Love (hamstring)
• S Nick Emmanwori (ankle)
• OLB Boye Mafe (toe)
• TE Elijah Arroyo (groin)
• C Jalen Sundell (ankle, elbow)

Full Participation

• RB Zach Charbonnet (foot)
• LB Ernest Jones IV (shoulder)

Charbonnet returning to full participation is a positive sign, especially with Kenneth Walker III continuing to carry a heavy workload. The Seahawks have leaned on a strong run game to help balance the offense, and Charbonnet’s presence gives them a reliable 1-2 punch when healthy.

What’s Next

All eyes now turn toward the Thursday night clash against the Arizona Cardinals-a pivotal game in a tight NFC West race. With injuries mounting and short recovery time between weeks, Seattle's roster flexibility and depth pieces like Cody White and Khalil Herbert could end up playing a bigger role than the box score might show.
