The Seattle Seahawks will waive running back Kenny McIntosh, who is currently on the physically unable to perform list due to a torn ACL. McIntosh, a 2023 seventh-round draft pick, struggled with injuries that limited his playing time as a rookie and in 2024, where he mostly contributed on special teams. Competition for the roster spot has intensified following the Seahawks' recent draft and free agent signings, making McIntosh's chances of making the team slim. His departure opens opportunities for other players like George Holani and Emanuel Wilson.
