The Seahawks have made the necessary roster move for Ed Dickson to make his debut.
Seattle on Saturday activated Dickson from the non-football-injury list in time for him to make his first start for the team at tight end Sunday here in Detroit.
To make roster room for Dickson, the Seahawks waived second-year tight end Tyrone Swoopes. They hope he clears waivers so they can sign the former University of Texas quarterback back to their practice squad.
Swoopes made his first career start and had his first NFL catch in Seattle’s previous game, the win over Oakland Oct.
