Seahawks Cut Ties With Ex-Chiefs Playmaker in Last-Minute Move Before Cardinals Game
It has been quite a busy week of roster moves for the Seattle Seahawks, including striking a significant deal at the NFL trade deadline to give quarterback Sam Darnold another offensive weapon. Seattle also made a series of moves ahead of the team’s Week 10 clash against the Arizona Cardinals.
The Seahawks initially signed former Kansas City Chiefs wideout Mac Dalena to the team’s practice squad on November 5, 2025. On the eve of the team’s NFC West matchup against the Cardinals, Seattle released Dalena amid a series of moves.
Prior to his extremely brief stint with the Seahawks, Dalena was on the Chiefs roster during training camp. The rookie wideout was unable to make the final roster despite coming off a standout college football season at Fresno State.
“Dalena, an undrafted rookie out of Fresno State, initially signed with Kansas City this spring, then was waived prior to the start of the season,” Seahawks.com’s John Boyle detailed on November 5, 2025. “Dalena was a first-team All-Mountain West selection as a senior, leading the team with 64 catches for 1,065 yards and eight touchdowns.”
Here’s what you need to know about the latest Seahawks roster moves.
The Seahawks Placed DT Jarran Reed & WR Dareke Young on Injured Reserve
Seattle is also dealing with several injuries as the team placed defensive tackle Jarran Reed and wide receiver Dareke Young on injured reserve. The moves came prior to the matchup against the Cardinals and means the two players will miss at least four games, per NFL rules.
With the additional spots opening up, Seattle signed defensive tackle Quinton Bohanna and wideout Cody White from the team’s practice squad to the active roster. Additionally, the Seahawks elevated linebacker Patrick O’Connell and receiver Ricky White III to the active roster for the Cardinals game.
Heading Into NFL Week 10, the Seahawks Are the No. 3 Seed in the NFC
Seattle is in striking distance of landing the No. 1 seed in the NFC for the NFL playoffs. Heading into Week 10, Seattle holds the No. 3 seed and would host the No. 6 San Francisco 49ers if the postseason started today.
The Seahawks have the same 6-2 record as the Philadelphia Eagles and Tampa Bay Buccaneers who sit above Seattle in the standings based on tiebreakers. If Seattle continues its winning ways, the Seahawks could land a first-round bye and the ability to host all of the team’s NFC postseason matchups by securing the No. 1 seed.
Seattle is a 7-point favorite versus Arizona in the Week 10 matchup, per FanDuel.
The Seahawks’ Biggest Move Came in Trading for Playmaker Rashid Shaheed
The biggest move of the week came in the Seahawks’ acquisition of former New Orleans Saints playmaker Rashid Shaheed. Linebacker Uchenna Nwosu believes the trade sends an aggressive message to the entire roster.
“Absolutely it sends a message,” Nwosu told Seattle Sports on November 6. “Not just to us, but to the rest of the league that we’re trying to win now. We’re trying to go for it now. We feel like we’ve got the pieces, we’ve got the coaches, we’ve got the players.”
