Interestingly enough, Presley is familiar with Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll.

During the recruiting process, Presley had committed to the USC Trojans before flipping to the UCLA Bruins. He eventually transferred to California (Pa.) University. Presley went unselected in this year’s draft.

Gilreath entered the league as an undrafted free agent out of Wisconsin in 2011.

Throughout his time in the league, Gilreath has bounced around from team-to-team. Gilreath has had stints with the Indianapolis Colts, St. Louis Rams, Buffalo Bills, Pittsburgh Steelers (twice), Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Oakland Raiders.

What?! Release the 'fat rabbit?' How dare they! [emoji33]

Those are impressive highlights. Looks like Doug Baldwin. Many teams have kicked the tires. Seattle players sort of pride themselves on being a bunch of fellas that no one else wanted. Very competitive at WR this camp.

I also find it further intriguing that the Hawks released Chase Dixon and RaShaun Allen is still hanging around. Interested to see what Allen can do in a Pre-Season game. Yes, I agree that the TE spots are Miller, Willson, and McCoy's to lose. But, what if Allen turns out to be a huge talent? On the other hand, as quickly as the Seahawks churn the (training camp) roster looking for specific type guys... Allen HAD BETTER impress quickly.

I see.. Gilreath = punt returner?
