It will have to be 53 active +10 PS. Probably a few IRs as well who could end up playing later in the season.
The preseason roster cuts are starting for all teams.
And looks like one player who won't be playing for the Seahawks this season is Heath Farwell:
--There was bad news for the Seahawks at linebacker, however, with Carroll announcing that Heath Farwell likely needs groin surgery after suffering an injury in Friday's game.
"Heath is going back east to get evaluated," Carroll said. "He probably has to have surgery on his groin, so that's a very, very difficult situation for him. He had extensive damage, so everything points to surgery. I think he's traveling tomorrow to get out there for Thursday possibly."
Farwell, a backup linebacker and Seattle's special teams captain last year, was far from a lock to make the roster even if healthy because of the emergence of undrafted rookie Brock Coyle, but now with this injury it's likely that Coyle has clinched a spot on the team, while Farwell will end up on injured reserve, quite possibly by Tuesday when the Seahawks have to cut their roster down to 75 players (they trimmed the roster from 90 to 82 before Monday's practice).
