4 Seahawks rookies pass physicals, activated off NFI list

Well that was quick, wasn’t it?

Just as quickly as they were placed on the non-football injury (NFI) list, four Seattle Seahawks rookies are now off of it.

As reported on Tuesday, there were six Seahawks who reported for training camp and were subsequently put on the injured list. But as previously noted, there’s no reason to panic knowing that passing a physical is all that’s needed in training camp to be removed.

Here are the four Seahawks who are cleared for offseason activities:

• WR Tyrone Broden (UDFA)
• WR Montorie Foster (UDFA)
• LB D’Eryk Jackson (UDFA)
• CB Isas Waxter (UDFA)

Which leaves these two still on the NFI list

• DT Rylie Mills (fifth-round pick)
• CB Zy Alexander (UDFA)

Mills isn’t getting activated any time soon given he tore his ACL in January, so really the focus is on Alexander, as is justified given his tremendous last name. The former LSU corner is considered someone with a real shot to make the 53-man roster as one of John Schneider’s annual undrafted gems.

Veterans report to training camp on July 22, with the first practice all systems go for Wednesday, July 23.
