The Seattle Seahawks have made their standard gameday elevations from the practice squad ahead of Sunday’s Week 1 showdown with the Denver Broncos.
Veteran cornerback Artie Burns and safety Marquise Blair will be on the active roster. They’ll each have just two more practice squad elevations before they must be signed to the 53-man roster in order to play any more regular season games.
Burns was a bit of a question mark after being carted off with a toe injury against the Cleveland Browns in the preseason finale. He aggravated that injury in practice last week but evidently it’s not serious enough to prevent him from playing.
