Seahawks sign final draft pick, TE Elijah Arroyo, to rookie contract
And then there were none. On Friday morning, the Seattle Seahawks finally signed their final pick from the 2025 NFL draft: tight end Elijah Arroyo. This of course comes a day after the team agreed to terms with their other second round pick, safety Nick Emmanwori, who received a historic fully-guaranteed contract. When it was announced Emmanwori would be receiving a fully-guaranteed deal, many assumed Arroyo would be receiving one as well. While his won't be, the former Miami Hurricane weapon will be getting dang near close to one. Despite both players being second round picks, this is a stark reminder of how much money players stand to make as rookies depending on where they are selected. At No. 35 overall, Emmanwori will be making all $11+ million of his standard rookie contract, per Spotrac. Arroyo, picked 15 spots later, will be earning just over half as much as his fellow second round teammate. The Seahawks' training camp officially opens on Wednesday July 23rd, but rookies have already reported to the Virginia Mason Athletic Center. Now that Arroyo is officially signed, he can now join his teammates on the practice field to begin preparations for the 2025 campaign.

Seahawks release veteran TE Noah Fant
The Seahawks released veteran tight end Noah Fant on Sunday, the team announced. He was due a non-guaranteed salary of $8.49 million this season and the move saves $8.91 million against the salary cap. Fant, 27, spent the past three seasons with the Seahawks after being acquired in the 2022 trade that sent Russell Wilson to Denver. He appeared in 48 games, starting 42, and made 130 receptions for 1,400 yards and five touchdowns in his time in Seattle. The Broncos made Fant a first-round pick in 2019, and he spent three seasons there. He caught 170 passes for 1,905 yards and 10 touchdowns for the Broncos. Second-year tight end AJ Barner, rookie Elijah Arroyo and veteran free-agent addition Eric Saubert will see more opportunities at the position with Fant's release. The Seahawks also have a pair of undrafted rookie tight ends on the roster in Marshall Lang and Nick Kallerup.

BREAKING NEWS NFL first-round draft pick Noah Fant cut by his team three days before camp
Seattle Seahawks ' offseason of upheaval took another twist on Sunday with tight end Noah Fant released by the team. Fant, a 2019 first round draft pick for the Denver Broncos, played 48 games for the Seahawks after moving to Seattle as part of the 2022 trade that moved Russell Wilson to Denver. The 27-year-old Fant recorded 130 receptions for 1,400 yards and five touchdowns in his three years in Seattle but now is looking for a new team. The move frees up nearly $9million in salary cap space for the Seahawks and the organization says the move will likely see more opportunities for AJ Barner. The Seahawks welcome players back for the first day of camp from July 23, where a new era will begin for the team with Sam Darnold as their quarterback. His predecessor, Geno Smith, was traded to the Las Vegas Raiders earlier this year as Tom Brady led a rebuild of the AFC West organization. Smith reunited with his former Seahawks coach Pete Carroll in Vegas. Darnold enjoyed an impressive year with the Minnesota Vikings last season, although his campaign was blighted by his form stuttering as the team made the playoffs. He signed a three-year, $100.5million deal with the team.
