Foster completed his journey as an undrafted wideout out of Michigan State. He officially joined the Seahawks roster before winning the Super Bowl alongside quarterback Sam Darnold and a loaded roster.
This isn’t the first time he’s been waived by Seattle, though. The franchise once waived him with an injury designation back on Aug. 7 of last year during training camp. He ultimately joined the team again as a practice squad member during December.
Foster later agreed to sign a reserves/futures contract in Feb. 2026 following Seattle’s title winning run in Santa Clara. But now the Seahawks have decided to have other plans involving the fan favorite from the famed reality television series.
Meanwhile, the Seahawks needed to overcome one notable injury from the 20-3 trouncing of the Chiefs. Receiver/kick returner Rashid Shaheed left early and never returned. He joined running back Velus Jones in exiting during the game. Except Shaheed left with a knee ailment while Jones was dealing with a bad hamstring. Macdonald delivered some promising health news on Shaheed’s knee when addressing reporters Monday.
Seattle is 4-3 overall after taking down the previously undefeated Chiefs.
