Seahawks add former Ravens cornerback with Mike Macdonald ties to practice squad

   

The Seattle Seahawks have wasted no time filling their vacant practice squad spot.

A day after releasing former Tennessee Titans cornerback Eric Garror, the Seahawks signed former Baltimore Ravens draft pick Damarion Williams to the practice squad. Williams was drafted by Baltimore in the fourth round back in 2022, playing 14 games as a rookie before missing much of 2023 to injury. He was waived from the Ravens active roster in August, then signed to the practice squad before Baltimore released him in October.

Williams is familiar with head coach Mike Macdonald, who was Baltimore’s defensive coordinator in the previous two seasons before becoming Seattle’s head coach. He played 226 defensive snaps as a rookie, predominantly in the first half of the season before effectively being out of the rotation later in the year.

While starting corner Riq Woolen is scheduled to return to practice on Wednesday after injuring his ankle in Week 5 against the New York Giants, Tre Brown is not ready to practice after missing last week’s win over the Atlanta Falcons with his own ankle injury.
