Seahawks signed DE Jameson Konz from their practice squad.

Tue May 25 201017:49Seventh-rounder Konz working as a tight end
Seahawks seventh-rounder Jameson Konz has been working as a tight end, not a receiver, in OTAs.
A freakishly athletic practice squad candidate, Konz will have to bulk up to stay at tight end even if he's ultimately a backup for John Carlson as a receiving specialist. The Seahawks aren't going to ask him to do much blocking.
