Seahawks | Ben Burr-Kirven sustains knee injury Sun Aug 22, 09:25 AM
Seattle Seahawks LB Ben Burr-Kirven (knee) sustained a serious knee injury during the team's preseason game against the Denver Broncos Saturday, Aug. 21, according to head coach Pete Carroll.

Seahawks | Ben Burr-Kirven may not make roster Sat Jun 6, 06:45 PM
Seattle Seahawks LB Ben Burr-Kirven could be on the roster bubble during training camp since the team added DE/LB Bruce Irvin and LB Jordyn Brooks this offseason.
| Footballguys view: Burr-Kirven might stick because of his special teams ability, but there is definitely a numbers issue at his position after the team added Bruce Irvin in free agency and drafted Jordyn Brooks in the first round this year. Perhaps another team would give a small late draft bump or conditional pick for him if the Seahawks want to let him go at final cutdown. |

| Footballguys view: Blair was a second round pick this year projects as a box safety and could push for playing time early. He's should be on dynasty IDP watch lists.
