Tuesday transactions: Former Seahawk Derrick Coleman has suspension lifted by NFL; Seattle also waives 7th-round pick Kenny Lawler

The NFL on Tuesday listed a suspension on former Seahawk fullback, making him a free agent and meaning he is immediately eligible to sign and play with any team.

Coleman was suspended last month after pleading guilty to vehicular-assault and hit-and-run charges in connection with an injury crash a year ago in Bellevue. He was later sentenced to 240 hours of community service and 12 months of community supervision.

Coleman spent three seasons with the Seahawks from 2013-15 but then went unsigned as a free agent following the 2015 season. He was then suspended following the guilty plea.
