The Seattle Seahawks made a couple of moves ahead of their Week 6 matchup with the Cleveland Browns. The team activated safety Dee Eskridge from the injured reserve list and elevated offensive tackle Jason Peters from the practice squad.
Eskridge, a rookie out of Western Michigan, was drafted in the second round of the 2021 NFL Draft. He was placed on injured reserve in early October due to an ankle injury. The Seahawks hope that he can provide a spark to their secondary, which has been struggling this season.
Peters, a veteran offensive tackle, was signed by the Seahawks in August. He was placed on the practice squad in September and has been working hard to stay in shape and be ready for his chance to play. With starting left tackle Duane Brown out due to injury, Peters will get the chance to prove himself against the Browns.
The Seahawks are hoping that these two moves will help them get back on track after a disappointing start to the season. Eskridge and Peters both have the potential to make an impact on the team and help them get back into contention for a playoff spot. It will be interesting to see how they perform against the Browns and if they can help the Seahawks turn things around.
