The former sixth-round pick has been a backup for the Seahawks for four years. He has 14 career starts with three coming at left tackle and 11 on the right side. Forsythe made five starts at right tackle early in the 2024 season before landing on injured reserve with a hand injury. He will take on swing tackle duties for the Giants in 2025.

Forsythe took over for an injured Abraham Lucas at right tackle in Week 2 and made five starts before suffering an injury of his own. With Lucas now healthy, Forsythe will likely remain on the bench for Week 16.

Forsythe will miss at least four games, five if you include his absence from Week 7. Seattle claimed linebacker Josh Ross off waivers from the Ravens in a corresponding move. Ross appeared in seven games with the Ravens this year and played exclusively on special teams.

Seahawks beat reporter John P. Boyle reports, “Seattle will be onto its fourth option at right tackle for Sunday’s game at Atlanta.” Fortunately, the Falcons’ pass rush is an ineffective unit.
