• 49ers waived S Cameron Glenn.

Seahawks

Seahawks second-round WR D.K. Metcalf ran routes well enough at rookie minicamp that Seattle thinks he could start outside and allow Tyler Lockett to move to the slot to replace Doug Baldwin. 

“I know that everybody’s wondering about this route tree thing and all that now,” HC Pete Carroll said via John Clayton of the Washington Post. “I don’t see that being a factor. He looks he’s very well-versed, been coached.”
