The Seahawks made some moves to get down to 53, including the release of last year’s backup quarterback. Here’s the full rundown:

Waived:

• QB Trevone Boykin
• T Darrell Brown
• LB Rodney Butler
• RB Alex Collins
• RB Mike Davis
• CB Pierre Desir
• WR Cyril Grayson
• DT Tylor Harris
• C Joey Hunt
• DT Quinton Jefferson
• WR Kenny Lawler
• DT Jeremy Liggins
• DT Greg Milhouse
• WR David Moore
• LB Kache Palacio
• C/G Will Pericak
• LB Otha Peters
• WR Darreus Rogers
• DT Garrison Smith
• WR Rodney Smith
• TE Tyrone Swoopes
• T Tyrus Thompson
• CB Mike Tyson

Waived/Injured:

• LB Christian French
• CB Demetrius McCray
• DT Rodney Coe
• WR Kasen Williams

Released:

• LB Mike Morgan
• FB Marcel Reece

Boykin has lost the backup QB job to Austin Davis and that’s not a huge surprise after Davis’ performance in the preseason. Coach Pete Carroll indicated recently that he would have liked to keep three signal callers, but it just wasn’t realistic.

“It’s a good idea if you can do it,” Carroll said. “They’re so important. It just depends on the rest of the roster.”
