Seattle opted to go into the defensive trenches to fill that vacant 53-man roster spot, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.seahawks.com\/news\/seahawks-sign-dt-deven-eastern-off-practice-squad-elevate-two-players\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">signing rookie defensive tackle Deven Eastern<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">With Leonard Williams and Brandon Pili both out with injury, Seattle\u2019s defensive interior is significantly compromised. Eastern had an up-and-down and injured preseason, but at this stage the Seahawks need any bodies to get through the next couple of games before their Week 11 bye.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">Seattle also elevated swing tackle Bobby Hart and wide receiver Montorie Foster Jr from the practice squad for a second consecutive week. With Charles Cross and Rashid Shaheed both out, Hart and Foster get the call-ups again, leaving them each with one PS elevation left.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">What is the most notable aspect of Saturday\u2019s roster transactions is the fact that quarterback Adrian Martinez was not signed to the active roster as an emergency third-stringer. By NFL rule, only players on the active roster can be an emergency third QB, so Martinez would\u2019ve needed to be signed to the 53 from the practice squad to be eligible. Instead, he\u2019s not going to be available on Sunday against the Arizona Cardinals, so Drew Lock and Jalen Milroe are it for the Seahawks. If they both get hurt, your guess is as good as mine as to who the third QB is.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Seattle Seahawks had an open roster spot entering Saturday due to the release of running back Velus&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":909662,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[63],"tags":[349,46267,24284,99],"class_list":["post-909661","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nfl","tag-nfl","tag-seattle-seahawks-injuries","tag-seattle-seahawks-roster","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/909661","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=909661"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/909661\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/909662"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=909661"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=909661"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=909661"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
