The Seattle Seahawks are releasing veteran tight end Luke Willson on Tuesday, a source tells ESPN's Adam Schefter.
The 30-year-old Willson has played sparingly this season as the Seahawks' No. 4 tight end behind Greg Olsen, Will Dissly and Jacob Hollister. They just activated rookie fourth-round pick Colby Parkinson from the Non-Football Injury list, adding to their logjam at the position.
Seattle also has undrafted rookie Tyler Mabry on its practice squad as well as rookie seventh-round pick Stephen Sullivan, who plays tight end and defensive end.
