These Seven Seahawks Are Fighting For Their Future, And The 12s Need To Know Who Can Join The Super Bowl Push

Alright, 12s, let's be real for a sec. We've heard the whispers, we've seen the rankings, and yeah, our Seattle Seahawks have the best roster in the entire NFL. Period. We're talking Super Bowl 2026 kind of talent here, and you know I don't say that lightly. But while the Cooper Kupps and Jaxon Smith-Njigbas of the world are set, there's a whole crew of hungry guys at the bottom of the 90-man roster who are absolutely fighting for their lives. These aren't the household names you see on jerseys yet, but some of them could surprise us all and become unexpected heroes for the Emerald City!

The Rookies and Practice Squad Prowlers: Who's Got That Upside?

First up, at #91, we've got wide receiver Rashad Rochelle. This undrafted free agent from Indiana State just landed in Seattle on May 14, making him our newest rookie. The dude can return kicks, which is massive, and he put up 644 yards in his last five college games, even dropping a school-record 224 against Youngstown State. That's serious potential, folks! Then there's Uso Seumalo at #90, a nose tackle who's still a total unknown. He hasn't even had his first day of training camp yet, and our D-line is arguably the best in the league, both starters and depth. If this guy just makes the practice squad this year, that's a win. Don't sleep on Ja’Markis Weston at #89. This linebacker isn't a rookie to camp life, having been activated for three games with the Jets last year before we picked him up in December. We've got insane depth at linebacker, sure, but his positional flexibility could make him an ideal backup for Nick Emmanwori. And finally, keep an eye on safety Maxen Hook at #85. He was an undrafted free agent in 2025, spen

t last season on our practice squad, and was called "easy to watch" before the 2025 draft. He's a great one-on-one tackler with tons of special teams experience. This high motor veteran safety brings impressive range, instincts in zone coverage, and competitive toughness. He might be projected as a third option, but that's a solid piece for our future.

Facing an Uphill Battle: These 'Hawks Have Work to Do

Now, let's talk about some guys who have a steeper climb ahead. Velus Jones, Jr., at #88, famously ran a 4.31 at the 2022 combine. That speed is undeniable, but he's 29 now, and with the depth we've built at running back, the team might be looking elsewhere for both the main roster and the practice squad. It’s tough out there! Then there's cornerback Tyrone Broden at #87. The team moved him from receiver to corner this offseason, and honestly, that kind of switch often feels like a last-ditch effort. Best case scenario, are we even seeing him in a game before 2027? Yikes. And at #86, wide receiver Montorie Foster, Jr., is in his second offseason with us. He was an undrafted free agent from Michigan State in 2025, but his college production wasn't exactly eye-popping, averaging 580 yards over his last two seasons. He's almost 25, and sometimes, there just isn't much room left for growth.

The Fight Continues!

So there you have it, 12s. From potential future stars to veterans facing crunch time, these guys are all a part of our incredible roster. As we look ahead to what's next for our boys, every single player fighting for a spot brings something to the table. Will any of these guys shock the league and become the surprise factor we need for our Super Bowl push? Only time, and a whole lot of grit, will tell. We'll be watching every snap, every drill, and every roster move. Go 'Hawks!
