The Seattle Seahawks have signed TE Gabe Holmes and CB Akeem King to their practice squad on Wednesday.
The Seahawks’ practice squad now consists of:
- RB Mike Davis
- C Joey Hunt (Exception)
- DT Garrison Smith
- TE Tyrone Swoope
- DB Mike Tyson
- QB Trevone Boykin (Exception)
- LB Austin Calitro
- WR David Moore
- TE Gabe Holmes
- CB Akeem King
Holmes, 26, wound up signing on with the Raiders as an undrafted free agent out of Purdue back in May of 2015. He managed to make the 53-man roster coming out of preseason, but was cut loose just a few weeks later.
The Raiders later signed him to their practice squad after he cleared waivers and elected to bring Holmes back on a one-year, exclusive rights contract this past April. Unfortunately, Oakland waived him coming out of the preseason.
Holmes has yet to appear in an NFL game.
