The Seahawks elevated linebacker Edmond Robinson from the practice squad ahead of Sunday's game at Houston, adding not just linebacker depth but also a player who figures to contribute on special teams.
Robinson, who signed to Seattle's practice squad last month, has appeared in 35 career games, playing primarily on special teams, and last year he led the Falcons with 12 special teams tackles.
A 2015 seventh-round pick out of Division II Newberry College, Robinson spent time with the Vikings, Jets and Cardinals, then had stints with the Arizona Hotshots of the AAF and the Houston Roughnecks of the XFL before joining the Falcons last season.
The Seahawks will be missing a key special teams contributor this week in running back Travis Homer, who was ruled out with hamstring/calf injuries.
