In news that’s not surprising given the cryptic Instagram post a few days ago, the Seattle Seahawks are going to release defensive lineman Shelby Harris. NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero reported the story early Monday.
Harris was easily one of Seattle’s best defensive linemen in 2022, playing in 15 games and registering 25 hurries (per PFF), five tackles for loss, and two sacks as a 3-tech DL. Seattle reaching the playoffs was an awesome achievement for Shelby, who’d never made it this far in his career. He had the misfortune of leaving the Oakland Raiders after 2015, the year before they ended their postseason appearance drought, and then joining the Denver Broncos two seasons into their current playoff drought.
