The Seattle Seahawks made some more moves to their practice squad on Thursday. It was reported the Seahawks terminated the contract of veteran linebacker Tyus Bowser, who played in the last two games for Seattle. Given Bowser's history with the Baltimore Ravens and his former defensive coordinator Mike Macdonald, his position on the Seahawks made sense.

However, his time in the Emerald City is done, for now. Replacing him is another linebacker in rookie Devin Richardson. A familiar face, Richardson hails from Washington State, where he had 62 total tackles and a sack for the Cougars. In his collegiate career, he had 156 total tackles and three sacks.

Seattle's defensive depth was put to the test on Monday Night Football this past week, one they failed spectacularly by allowing the Detroit Lions to run up and down the field on them. The Seahawks were torched for 42 points, and barely put up any resistance to quarterback Jared Goff, who was perfect by completing 18-of-18 passes.

In the loss, Bowser did get the start, due to the injuries to Byron Murphy II, Leonard Williams, Uchenna Nwosu, Boye Mafe and Jerome Baker.

The Seahawks will face the offensively inept New York Giants on Sunday. Should Seattle's defensive starters remain less than 100%, it is likely the team will sit them again to save them for the impending Thursday Night Football showdown against the San Francisco 49ers. If this is the case, perhaps Richardson could get a taste of his first regular season NFL action.
