No. 25 · 4th season

Knee injuries, a seventh-round shot, and now Seattle moves on from Kenny McIntosh

The margin for a seventh-round pick is thin. There is almost no room for bad luck, and Kenny McIntosh ran out of both.

McIntosh came into the league with the Seattle Seahawks in 2023 as one of the last players selected in the draft — the kind of roster spot that requires everything to go right just to stick. Seventh-round picks don't get long runways. They need to stay healthy and stay available, and McIntosh couldn't do that. Knee injuries cut into his time and his chances.

Now Seattle is waiving him. The door closes quietly, the way it usually does at the bottom of a depth chart.

For McIntosh, the work of earning another shot starts over. Someone else will see the tape, see a player who made it to an NFL roster, and decide if there's more left to find out.
