Dis Shead got activated

Given Shead’s long layoff from football, it’s probably not likely that he’ll step right back into one of the starting spots held by Byron Maxwell and rookie Shaquill Griffin, but he does immediately provide starter-quality depth to the secondary while also giving Seattle a big upgrade on special teams. Prior to being a starter last season, Shead was one of Seattle’s top special teamers, both in terms of playing time and productivity, and last year he was voted a special teams co-captain, along with Jon Ryan, by his teammates

“He’s a fantastic special teams player,” Carroll said. “He’s one of the best that we have ever had.”

Asked what Shead’s return would bring to the defense, defensive coordinator Kris Richard said, “Veteran, poise, experience, great energy. Awesome communicator and just a fantastic guy to be around. That’s who he has been throughout his whole entire career here. It’s just that kind of level of optimism is what he brings every single day.”
