Seahawks sign Julian Hicks after roster shakeup following Cowboys loss
Summary

The Seattle Seahawks made several roster moves ahead of their second preseason game against the Tennessee Titans. After suffering a loss to the Dallas Cowboys, the team cut two running backs and brought in former Green Bay Packers wide receiver Julian Hicks, who stands at 6-foot-2. Seattle also signed running back Anthony Hankerson and linebacker Power Echols. Hicks, an undrafted free agent who spent last season on the Packers' practice squad, will face stiff competition for a roster spot amid a crowded wide receiver group. Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald emphasized the need for improvement following the team's last performance.
