The Seattle Seahawks moved into compliance with the 2025 NFL salary cap this week by moving on from many of the players they had added to the roster, or otherwise committed to over the course of the past year.
Entering the week needing to shed roughly $7M of cap space prior to the start of the new NFL year at 4pm New York time on Wednesday, March 12, the Hawks quickly came into compliance by releasing a quartet of players Tuesday.
