Seahawks defensive end L.J. Collier, who missed the first four games of the season on injured reserve, has been designated to return to practice.
That doesn't necessarily mean Collier is set to return to game action this week—players can return to practice and not count towards the 53-man roster for up to three weeks before either being added to the roster or having to stay on IR for the season—but it is a positive sign of progress for Collier, who has been out with an elbow injury suffered during training camp.
Additionally, the Seahawks added a familiar name to the practice squad Wednesday, signing center Joey Hunt.
Cornerback Quandre Mosely was released from the practice squad to make room for Hunt.
Hunt, who was selected by Seattle in the sixth round of the 2016 draft, appeared in 34 games with the Seahawks, starting 11, including eight starts in 2019.
Hunt spent the past two seasons with the Colts, primarily on the practice squad, appearing in one game.
