The Seahawks picked up two players from the waiver wire today. Guard Jordan Simmons was waived by the Los Angeles Raiders, while defensive back Simeon Thomas was released by the Cleveland Browns. Seattle needed depth along the offensive line and in the defensive backfield, so the moves make sense.
When it comes to who Seattle released, I have to admit I was surprised. Versatile offensive lineman Rees Odhiambo was the first player waived. Odhiambo played both guard and tackle over the past two years. He filled in at left tackle when George Fant went down prior to the start of the 2017 season.
