What happened: The NFL will place Terrion Arnold on the Commissioner's Exempt List once his contract with the Seattle Seahawks is finalized, according to NFL Network. The cornerback faces eight felony charges, including armed robbery and kidnapping, stemming from an incident in February 2026.

Why it matters: The designation renders him ineligible to practice or play in games, though he is still permitted to attend meetings and access team facilities. Arnold will receive his salary while on the list, and his contract will not count against the 53-man active roster limit.

What to watch: The league will continue its review of the legal matter as the Seahawks proceed through the preseason.
