Seahawks Elevate Trevon Diggs and Bobby Hart Before Raiders Game

The moves force a near-term roster decision because Hart has reached the NFL’s three-elevation limit.

Overview

  • The Seahawks announced Saturday that they elevated cornerback Trevon Diggs and offensive tackle Bobby Hart from the practice squad for Sunday’s Week 10 game at the Las Vegas Raiders.
  • Diggs has played just 27 defensive snaps this season and is expected to be a depth option behind starters Devon Witherspoon and Nehemiah Pritchett unless an in-game injury creates more playing time.
  • Hart’s elevation is his third consecutive game-day call-up, which exhausts the NFL rule that allows three practice-squad elevations without signing a player to the 53-man roster.
  • Left tackle Charles Cross was ruled out for the game, so Hart provides insurance behind swing tackle Josh Jones and helps cover Seattle’s immediate offensive-line shortage.
  • Diggs’s elevation underscores a larger arc in his career from 2021 All‑Pro to a veteran fighting for snaps after injuries, and Seattle’s bye next week gives the team time to decide whether to sign Hart to the active roster or wait on Cross’s recovery.
