SEATTLE (AP) -Cornerback Marcus Trufant will miss the first six games for Seahawks. And veteran safety Brian Russell is gone, amid reports Seattle is about to sign Lawyer Milloy.
Those were the biggest moves the team announced Saturday while trimming its roster to 53 players for the regular season.
Trufant, a Pro Bowl selection in 2007, has not practiced since before training camp because of a disk issue in his back. He begins the season on the physically-unable-to-perform list.
Nine-time Pro Bowl left tackle Walter Jones is not on the PUP list even though he recently had his second knee surgery in eight months. That indicates the Seahawks think the 35-year-old can return sooner than six weeks from now.
Seattle also decided its kicker will again be veteran Olindo Mare when it waived 2008 draft pick Brandon Coutu.
