Seahawks make several cuts and save 27 million US dollars in the salary limit.

Seattle-Die Seahawks terminated the publications of external line backers Dre’mont Jones, the defensive Tackle Roy Robertson-Harris, the security of Rayshawn Jenkins and the offensive-tackle George Fant-Voreweg, to save the team around $ 27 million in the Cap Space.

And that may only be the beginning of your salary track in front of free authorities, with the signs on the broad recipient Tyler Lockett, which will probably be published later this week, an unexpected restructuring of his contract.

Jones is the most important of the four cuts that Seattle announced on Tuesday.

The Seahawks are not known as great expenses in the free agency and made an expression of signing Jones in March 2023, and it was not about. He did not miss a game in two seasons, but with only 8.5 sacks and 12 duels against the loss in this period, he did not have the effects that was expected when Seattle made him expensive Free Agent in franchise with a three-year, $ 51.53 million deal.

After Jones, 28, played defensive tackle and the end of 2023, he scored a greater role in the outdoor lines in Mike Macdonald’s defense last year in Mike Macdonald’s defense. The Seahawks hoped that Macdonald’s preference to move at the front with defenders would help to unlock Jones, but he played mostly on the edge and recorded 4.0 sacks, while he was a majority of the year.

In 2025, Jones was to earn 16.51 million US dollars, nobody was guaranteed. If the Seahawks make it a standard publication, the move saves 11.57 million US dollars in CAP Space and has a dead CAP fee of $ 14.1 million.

The Seahawks acquired Robertson-Harris last October last October in a trade with the Jacksonville Jaguars and gave a choice in the sixth round of 2026 to improve the depth along their line of defense. He ended the zero bags and a duel for the loss in 11 games with Seattle when his season in November and December decreased considerably.

In 2025, Robertson-Harris was supposed to earn a not guaranteed $ 6.6 million. The Seahawks will save this amount with its publication in Cap Space, which does not leave any dead money behind.

Jenkins joined the Seawks with a two-year $ 12 million deal with a two-year $ 12 million deal with Julian Love. In the middle of the season, he missed four games with an injury to the left hand and was replaced by Coby Bryant, the origin of which Jenkins connected to the safety role of number 3 when he returned from the injured reserve.

The Seahawks gave Jenkins, 31, permission to look for a trade, but nothing materialized. In 2025 he was supposed to earn a not guaranteed $ 5.4 million. His publication saves Seattle $ 5.28 million in Cap Space and leaves $ 2.5 million in dead money.

The Seahawks only received 30 fans snapshots after signing him with a two-year contract for $ 9.1 million as a hedge on the right tackle with ABE Lucas under the knee surgery. Fant, 32, injured his knee at the start and then strengthened the injury when he came back in November and had a grip on him for the rest of the season for the rest of the season.

FANT was supposed to earn a not guaranteed $ 3.8 million in 2025. With its publication, the Seahawks will save this amount against the upper limit, while taking $ 1.85 million in dead money.

Before the cuts on Tuesday, the Seahawks amounted to around 6.8 million US dollars at the 2025 expenditure limit. Next week will probably take further steps before the start of the free agency.

After Lockett and the Seahawks apparently have a split up to date, the team discusses a revised contract with Uchenna Nwosu, which would reduce the capital fee of external lines by $ 21.17 million.

The Seahawks also had preliminary discussions with Geno Smiths Agent at The Combine about a new deal. General Manager John Schneider informed the reporters in Indianapolis that they hope to extend the veteran quarters – who would reduce his capital fee of 44.5 million US dollars – although it is not clear whether this will happen before the start of the free agency.
