The Seattle Seahawks released offensive tackle George Fant, outside linebacker Dre'Mont Jones, defensive tackle Roy Robertson-Harris and safety Rayshawn Jenkins on Tuesday.
The moves combined to save the Seahawks approximately $27.25 million against the cap, according to the Seattle Times.
Fant, 32, began his career in Seattle and returned in 2024 after stints with the New York Jets (2020-22) and Houston Texans (2023). But his reunion was marred by injuries. He started at right tackle in Week 1, suffered a knee injury and spent half the season on injured reserve. He came back to start Week 9, only to aggravate the injury and miss the remainder of the season.
Fant made 26 starts on the offensive line in his 48 career appearances with the Seahawks (2016, 2018-19, 2024). He has played in 101 career games, starting 75.
Jones, 28, spent two seasons in Seattle and started 16 of 17 games in 2023 before losing his starting role midway through the 2024 campaign. He compiled 77 tackles and 8.5 sacks in 34 games for Seattle after starting his career in Denver (2019-22), where he started 29 of his 56 appearances and amassed 133 tackles and 22 sacks.
Seattle acquired Roberston-Harris, 31, from the Jacksonville Jaguars just before the 2024 trade deadline in exchange for a 2026 sixth-round draft pick. He played 11 games for Seattle in a reserve role and did not record a sack after having two in six games for the Jaguars.
The veteran spent time with the Chicago Bears (2017-20) before going to the Jaguars (2021-24). He has 211 career tackles and 19 sacks in 117 games (62 starts).
Jenkins, 31, made nine starts in 13 appearances for the Seahawks in his lone season with the club. He had a career-high two sacks and in Week 5 returned a fumble 102 yards for a touchdown.
