Seattle Seahawks shock fans by cutting wide receiver Kyre Duplessis just six days after signing him—opting instead to bring in veteran outside linebacker Garrett Nelson to bolster their pass rush. Duplessis, a 24-year-old former All-Conference standout at Delaware with return specialist potential, was let go despite his brief NFL window opening with the Lions earlier this offseason. The Seahawks’ move underscores how fast roster decisions can shift in training camp, prioritizing immediate need over depth at receiver. Nelson, with proven sack and tackle-for-loss stats from college and the UFL, fills the void as Seattle actively sought upgrades before finalizing their roster. Duplessis now enters waivers, hoping another team will give him a shot—or he may head back to free agency.
