The Seattle Seahawks have promoted safety Rodney Thomas to their active 53-man roster as of September 23, 2026. This move follows Thomas's successful performance after being elevated from the practice squad for the first two games of the season, where he recorded four tackles and a key pass defense leading to an interception. The shift may indicate that regular starter Ty Okada could be headed for the Injured Reserve list, as he has not participated in any practices this season. Further updates on Okada's status are expected soon.
