Needing added depth for the defensive line, the Seattle Seahawks have released linebacker Justin March-Lillard and signed defensive end Branden Jackson to the 53-man roster from the practice squad.
Jackson went undrafted out of Texas Tech in 2016 and was signed by the Oakland Raiders (Ken Norton connection), being active for three games and recording one tackle. From his NFL.com scouting report in 2016:
Jackson absolutely looks the part of an NFL defensive end/rush linebacker, but like many Tech defenders, was underrated due to Tech's middling success and the program's reputation for offensive prowess.
