Seahawks Place S Kam Chancellor On IR, Promote Two

The Seattle Seahawks announced Saturday that they’ve placed S Kam Chancellor on injured reserve and promoted CB Mike Tyson and LB Kache Palacio to their active roster.

Seattle has been holding off on placing Chancellor on the injured reserve list for cap reasons, despite the fact that it was announced weeks ago that he was out for the season with a neck injury.

Chancellor had gotten multiple opinions regarding his neck injury and Pete Carroll indicated that his future beyond this season is somewhat up in the air.

Chancellor, 29, is a former fifth-round pick of the Seahawks back in 2010. He’s currently in the first year of his four-year, $43.13 million contract that included $25 million and set to make base salaries of $3 million and $6.8 million over the first two years of the agreement.

In 2017, Chancellor appeared in nine games and recorded 49 tackles, one forced fumble, a safety and two pass defenses for the Seahawks.
