Jackson Jeffcoat waived

Terrell Thomas also released.

A lot of people were high on Jeffcoat. That's a disappointment.

Cutdowns suck. Feel bad for these guys.

Having a deep team like the Seahawks, it will be tough for a lot of guys. This is the downside of sports. It's going to be long week for a lot of players. Maybe they will bring back Jeffcoat on PS.

Jeffcoat had the name. Maybe we will see him again

I was very surprised by how underwhelming Jeffcoat was, I was really expecting him to play well for us.

I'd like to see Jeffcoat sign to the PS.

Is there any rhyme or reason to the timing of these cuts?

any links

we didnt do him any favors changing his position , I think he makes PS

Deadline to cut down to 75 man roster is tomorrow, I think

Have to be down to 75 by 4pm Eastern Tuesday and 53 by 4pm Eastern Saturday.

I could be wrong, but I would think that they would want to limit a guy's time on the market if they wanted to sign him to the practice squad.

Jeffcoat is a slowish "tweener". He may catch on with somebody in the short term but I doubt he sticks anywhere for long. Teams may take a peek because of his pedigree and AA credentials, but they will turn him loose after getting the look see.

I would bet the house that he doesn't end up on Seattle's practice squad. Doesn't have the attributes that Carroll covets......namely speed.

Jeffcoat is slightly higher profile than the typical undrafted rookie. I personally believe that Seattle would have let him go after the Denver preseason game (he really was that bad) except for the fact that the organization wants to appeal to future undrafted free agents by demonstrating they gave Jeffcoat a legitimate chance.

Everything I read about him before had him pegged as a tweener and that is why he wasn't drafted.

Kudos to the Hawks for giving him a chance, but sometimes the conventional wisdom is correct and it looks like he is a man without a position right now.

Id have no problem with him on the practice squad, but if hes gonna have an nfl career then somethings gotta give.

This ranks pretty low on my "surprise" scale.

Jeffcoat had the misfortune of being asked to change position as well.
Didn't take as quick as FO wanted I guess.

I concur this right here

Jeffcoat needs a lot of work.. not surprised by this at all. He could very well wind up on the PS though, doubt anyone claims him off waivers

Wonder if the Cowboys would take a flier on him since they have been decimated at that spot.
