The Seattle Seahawks have elevated cornerback Trevon Diggs and offensive tackle Bobby Hart from the practice squad for Sunday’s Week 10 matchup against the Las Vegas Raiders, according to ESPN’s Brady Henderson, as the team announced on Saturday.
Diggs joins the active roster to bolster Seattle’s secondary. He has recorded one total tackle this season across four games played. He may see opportunities against the Raiders’ outside receiving threats, headlined by Tre Tucker.

Seattle will look to Hart for the third time this season off of the practice squad as the team continues to navigate the absence of starting left tackle Charles Cross, who is set to miss his third straight game. Hart’s availability provides additional depth along a Seahawks offensive line facing a difficult challenge against Las Vegas’ pass rush.
Hart will have his hands full to protect Seahawks quarterback Drew Lock. He will be tasked with helping to slow down Raiders superstar edge rusher Maxx Crosby, as well as his running mate Kwity Paye. With Cross sidelined, Hart’s ability to hold up against the Raiders’ pressure may prove to be critical to Seattle’s offensive success.
