The Seahawks signed rookie defensive tackle Thor Griffith on Tuesday. Griffith, an undrafted rookie out of Louisville, took part in Seattle’s rookie minicamp as a tryout player.<\/p>\n
Nose tackle Justin Rogers, who signed with Seattle last week, was waived to make room on the 53-man roster.<\/p>\n
Griffith, who is 6-foot-2, 305 pounds, began his college career at Harvard where he was an All-Ivy League first-team selection as well as an AFCA and FCS Football Central second-team All-America pick after recording 55 tackles, 11 tackles for loss and 3.5 sacks in 2023. In his three-year career at Harvard, Griffith recorded 132 tackles, 33.5 tackles for loss and 13.5 sacks in 30 games.<\/p>\n
Griffith then transferred to Louisville last year, appearing in 13 games with 21 tackles, 3.0 sacks, six tackles for loss and a forced fumble.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Seahawks signed rookie defensive tackle Thor Griffith on Tuesday.
