According to ESPN's Adam Caplan, the Seattle Seahawks waived running back Robert Turbin on Wednesday.
Turbin is currently recovering from a high-ankle sprain that he picked up toward the beginning of September, according to Gregg Bell of the News Tribune. Per NFL.com's Ian Rapoport, Turbin could be ready to play in five weeks, as the Seahawks were able to waive him with an injury designation.
The Seahawks were quick to address the backup situation, bringing in veteran Fred Jackson on Sept. 1, the same day head coach Pete Carroll announced Turbin was injured.
