Player News
Swoopes finished the 2019 season with one catch for five yards over six games.
Swoopes was brought up from the practice squad after Will Dissly went down with a season-ending Achilles injury and Luke Willson sustained a serious hamstring injury. Jacob Hollister, who will be a restricted free agent in March, served as the No. 1 tight end and will likely stick around in 2020 while Dissly gets healthy. Swoopes will be an exclusive-rights free agent, and he's not a lock to make the 53-man roster.
Swoopes was promoted to the Seahawks' 53-man roster Friday, John Boyle of the team's official site reports.
Swoopes signed to the team's practice squad in mid-October and now makes his way to the active roster. The 25-year-old appeared in one game with Seattle in each of the last two seasons, catching his lone target for 23 yards. Swoopes could serve as the No. 2 tight end Sunday in Philadelphia if Luke Willson (hamstring) is unable to play.
Swoopes (lower leg) signed to the Seahawks' practice squad Tuesday, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.
Swoopes was waived off injured reserve by the Seahawks in mid-August but will return to the team now that he's healthy. The 24-year-old appeared in one game for Seattle in each of the past two seasons.
The Seahawks waived Swoopes (lower leg) from injured reserve with an injury settlement Tuesday, per the official league transactions report.
Swoopes was placed on IR earlier this month due to a lower leg injury of undisclosed severity and was seen in a walking boot. The third-year pro will now be free to search for a depth role elsewhere in the league when recovered.
