What happened: Seattle drafted McIntosh in the seventh round at No. 237 in 2023. The move comes eight days after the club placed McIntosh on the PUP list while he recovered from the injury.

Why it matters: Seattle clears a training-camp roster spot and moves on from a running back who missed all of last season. McIntosh now enters the NFL waiver process ahead of the 2026 season.

By the numbers: McIntosh carried 31 times for 172 yards in 2024, averaging 5.5 yards per attempt. He appeared in three games as a rookie in 2023 and missed the 2025 season.

What to watch: The waiver process will determine whether another club claims McIntosh. Seattle's corresponding roster move is next.
