But there's more!
Jordan Schultz reported on Monday that undrafted rookie Robert Henry Jr, who’s been on the Washington Commanders practice squad all season, is joining the Seahawks active roster. We won’t have any official transactions announced until Tuesday, so a corresponding move will have to be made to get Henry on the team
So he's on the active roster. I'm assuming Mixon is a practice squad signing

Yes, my guy Dan Viens really likes Henry and wanted the Hawks to draft him in the 6th or 7th round. I like him too given he has the same name as my son, Henry! ha

Interesting, yeah, Henry seems like a more significant move

Mixon did have 1000+ yards in 2024 but he might be cooked.

Anything that gets Holani back to the PS where he belongs is a great thing...

They must have eyeballs and realize Holani can't cut it.

Henry is a little guy... but he's shifty and fast.

I don't know if Mixon is toast or not but he hasn't played football in two years. You're not signing him and then run him out against anybody in the immediate future

Mixon had basically retired, he commented over the summer he felt his career was over. I can't imagine he's anywhere close to football condition

Wildly productive, i like that, he's small, probably more of a gadget guy
Henry was a wildly productive player at UTSA last year — he topped 1,000 yards on the ground," Davenport wrote in May. "He averaged almost seven yards per carry and scored 11 total touchdowns while peeling off five runs of 70 yards or more. However, he is also a 24-year-old rookie who is just 5'9″ and 196 pounds, which led to his going undrafted … The Washington running back room isn't exactly loaded—the team's lead back is a second-year pro who was a seventh-round pick last year. Henry has a realistic shot to earn a roster spot if he carries his college burst and elusiveness into camp.
Something going to give when charbonnet returns. Be interesting who they move on from.
