Signed to practice squad
• Safety Quandre Diggs
• Running back Myles Gaskin
• Wide receiver Jimmy Holiday
The reunion with Diggs, who was a three-time Pro Bowler during a five-year tenure with the Seahawks from 2019-23, was reported Tuesday to be in the works. The Seahawks released Diggs after the 2023 season, and he signed with the Tennessee Titans in August 2024. Diggs waived earlier this month by the Titans. Click here for more on Diggs’ return.
Gaskin, a Lynnwood native and O’Dea High School and UW Huskies standout, returns to the Hawks practice squad after being cut last Thursday.
Holiday is an undrafted rookie from Lousiana Tech. He was released by the Kansas City Chiefs earlier this month.
Promoted from practice squad
• Cornerback Shaquill Griffin
• Linebacker Patrick O’Connell
Griffin, who was a Pro Bowler for Seattle in 2019, returned to the Seahawks for the first time since 2020 this offseason and has appeared in two games.
O’Connell has appeared in at least one game for the Seahawks in each of the past three seasons, including three games this year. The 26-year-old Montana product had nine tackles and a sack while playing a career-high 42 defensive snaps filling in during last Sunday’s win over the Titans, a game in which both Ernest Jones IV and Tyrice Knight missed due to injury.
Placed on injured reserve
• Linebacker Chazz Surratt
Surratt suffered an ankle injury on an early Seahawks kickoff return last Sunday and did not return to the game. A five-year NFL veteran, he has appeared in 11 games this season for Seattle.
Designated to return to practice
• Defensive end Rylie Mills
A 2025 fifth-round NFL Draft pick out of Notre Dame, the 6-foot-5, 290-pound Mills has been on the non-football related injured reserve with a torn ACL he sustained during his senior season with the Fighting Irish.
Waived
• Cornerback Derion Kendrick
The 25-year-old Kendrick has appeared in 10 games for Seattle this year and has two interceptions and five passes defensed.
Released from practice squad
• Tackle Logan Brown
A 24-year-old product of Wisconsin and Kansas, the undrafted Brown has been with both the Seahawks and Cleveland Browns practice squads this year.
