Sixth-round draft pick receiver Emmanuel Henderson Jr. was waived by the Seahawks on cutdown day. The move was not a surprise as the Seahawks figure to keep at most six receivers and Henderson did not appear to be in the top six on the depth chart as the preseason ended. The Seahawks surely hope Henderson goes unclaimed on waivers and can re-sign to the practice squad. Henderson played at Alabama and Kansas in college and had four catches for 65 yards in the preseason along with four kickoff returns for 88 yards.
