The Seattle Seahawks have their 53-man roster set for the 2026 NFL season, and the picture is now clear after Sunday’s round of final roster cuts, waives and releases. With the preseason in the books, Seattle has turned the page and is moving toward Week 1 of its Super Bowl LX rematch against the New England Patriots.
The quarterback room is led by Sam Darnold, with Drew Lock and Jalen Milroe also making the cut.
At running back, George Holani, Jadarian Price and Emanuel Wilson are on the active roster, while Brady Russell is listed at fullback.
Seattle’s wide receiver group includes Montorie Foster Jr., Tory Horton, Cooper Kupp, Rashid Shaheed and Jaxon Smith-Njigba.
The tight end spot goes to Elijah Arroyo, AJ Barner, Nick Kallerup and Eric Saubert.
On the offensive line, the Seahawks kept Anthony Bradford, Bryce Cabeldue, Charles Cross, Christian Haynes, Josh Jones, Abraham Lucas, Olu Oluwatimi, Beau Stephens, Jalen Sundell and Grey Zabel.
The linebacker group is deep, featuring Dante Fowler Jr., Derick Hall, Ernest Jones IV, Tyrice Knight, DeMarcus Lawrence, Uchenna Nwosu, Patrick O'Connell, connor O'Toole, Chazz Surratt and Drake Thomas.
Seattle’s defensive line is made up of Rylie Mills, Mike Morris, Byron Murphy II, Brandon Pili, Jarran Reed and Leonard Williams.
In the secondary, the Seahawks kept safeties Nick Emmanwori, Julian Love and Ty Okada, along with cornerbacks Josh Jobe, Julian Neal, Nehemiah Pritchett, Avery Smith and Devon Witherspoon.
Specialists were also part of the announcement, though no names were listed in the source.

Seahawks Let Go Of A Cornerback Who Immediately Found A Real Role
Noah Igbinoghenes Seattle stint ended the way so many late-summer roster battles do, with a final cut and no practice-squad safety net. The Seahawks let him go during final roster reductions and moved on without bringing him back as a developmental depth piece, a sign of how tight the competition was at cornerback once the roster started taking shape.
Igbinoghene did not have to wait long for another chance. Cleveland signed him to its active roster, giving him a real path to regular-season snaps and a far more immediate role than he had in Seattle. For a player fighting to stick in the league, the difference between a practice squad spot and a 53-man opportunity can be the whole story. [Read more 🡒]
Seahawks Just Lost A Promising Pass Rusher To A Brutal Rival
Jamie Sheriffs path through the NFC West took another turn after the Seahawks trimmed their roster ahead of the 2026 season. The undrafted edge rusher out of South Alabama first landed in Seattle in 2024, spent time on the practice squad there, and then re-emerged as a familiar name when ESPNs Brady Henderson reported he had signed with the Rams practice squad.
For Seattle, it is the kind of move that stings a little more because it comes with division context and a player the organization had already spent time developing. Sheriff was among the final cuts as the team set its roster, and now the Seahawks will see whether that early investment ends up helping a rival instead of paying off in their own rotation.

Seahawks Offense Suddenly Rests On Jadarian Price Right Away
The Seahawks did not expect to open the season leaning this heavily on a rookie, but that is the reality after Zach Charbonnets knee injury pushed him onto the physically unable to perform list. Seattle used the first round of the 2026 NFL Draft on Jadarian Price, and the early plan now points to him stepping into the lead role right away as the team tries to stabilize its backfield before Week 1.
Charbonnet is slated to miss at least the first four games, with a return not likely until Week 5 or later, so the Seahawks will have to build around Price sooner than planned. George Holani and Emanuel Wilson are there for support, but the spotlight is already on Price to handle the bulk of the running back work while Seattle waits for one of its most important offensive pieces to heal.
