The Seattle Seahawks made a significant shake up to their roster on Monday, releasing starting linebacker Tyrel Dodson after just nine games with the team.
Dodson started every game this season at linebacker for the Seahawks . The last two games saw him move from middle linebacker to weakside linebacker following the acquisition of Ernest Jones IV from the Tennessee Titans in October.The release of Dodson means the Seahawks have completely jettisoned their plan for the position they had entering the season. Dodson and Jerome Baker were signed to become the replacements for Bobby Wagner and Jordyn Brooks in the middle of Seattle's defense.
Jobe had played in the last three games for Seattle as an elevation from the practice squad, but with his trio of elevations exhausted, he needed to be added to the 53-man roster or exposed to waivers.Additionally, Seattle claimed nose tackle Brandon Pili off waivers from the Miami Dolphins, and placed safety K'Von Wallace on injured reserve to clear a roster spot.
