Waived:

  •  RaShaun Allen
  • Morrell Presley

It was completely unfortunate that the Seahawks lost Anthony McCoy before the season even began with an Achilles injury, but Seattle’s depth at tight end just proved how much talent the roster has.

Miller is consistent and has been since arriving in Seattle in 2011. At 28, he still has some football left in him but Willson is learning to take the reigns and share time with Miller as both a receiver and blocker.

The 1-2 punch of Miller and Willson is underrated and both could serve as red-zone targets or big targets on third down.

Helfet was an undrafted free agent signed in 2012 by the Seahawks but he has impressively worked his way onto the team.
