Seahawks release 2023 fourth-round pick The Seattle Seahawks have waived 2023 fourth-round pick Cameron Young

APRIL 24, 2025 • USATODAY.COM

Cut by Seattle The Seahawks waived Young on Wednesday.

Impact After appearing 16 regular-season games during the 2023 season, Young spent much of the 2024 campaign on injured reserve with a knee injury. A fourth-round pick just two years ago, Young turns 25 in June and will look for a fresh start elsewhere.

Placed on IR with knee injury The Seahawks placed Young (knee) on injured reserve Saturday, John Boyle of the team's official site reports.

Impact Young was on IR for the first five games of the regular season due to a knee injury. He returned for Week 6 against the 49ers, but he aggravated the issue in that contest and was forced to sit for the following two games. The injury is severe enough to warrant a second stint on the IR, and Young will be forced to sit for at least the next four regular-season games. The earliest he can return will be Week 14 against the Cardinals on Sunday, Dec. 8.

Ruled out for Week 9 Young (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's contest against the Rams, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reprorts.

Impact Young will be forced to miss another contest in Week 9 as he continues to nurse a knee issue. He will now shift his focus to being ready for Seattle's next contest in Week 11 against the 49ers on Nov. 17. In the meantime, Byron Murphy and Roy Robertson-Harris will operate in larger roles on the defensive line versus Los Angeles on Sunday.

Won't play Week 8 Young (knee) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Bills.

Impact Young missed the first five games of the regular season while on the Seahawks' reserve/PUP list due to an undisclosed injury. He returned for Week 6 against the 49ers but logged just three snaps (two on defense, one on special teams), but he was held out of Week 7 against the Falcons due to a knee injury. Young will be sidelined for a second-straight week, which makes Byron Murphy and Roy Robertson-Harris Seattle's the two backup options on the defensive line behind starters Jarran Reed, Johnathan Hankins and Leonard Williams.

Unlikely to suit up Week 8 Young (knee) is doubtful to play Sunday versus Buffalo, Gregg Bell of The Tacoma News Tribune reports.

Impact Young logged an LP/DNP/LP progression in practice this week, making it unlikely that he'll be able to play against the Bills. He's participated in only one game so far this season, logging two defensive snaps and one special-teams snap Week 6 against San Francisco.

OCTOBER 26, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Placed on active roster Young (knee) was activated from the reserve/PUP list Thursday, John Boyle of the team's official site reports.

Impact Young should suit up and make his season debut against the 49ers on Thursday. The 24-year-old was designated to return Oct. 2 and finally had a chance to practice with the team after being placed on the PUP list as training camp opened. The Mississippi State product should see rotational work on the Seahawks' defensive line.

OCTOBER 10, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Won't return Sunday Young (knee) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Giants, Corbin K. Smith of SI.com reports.

Impact Young had his 21-day practice window opened Wednesday and logged two limited sessions after missing the Seahawks' first four contests with a knee injury. The second-year pro appears to be nearly past his knee issue, but Johnathan Hankins is expected to continue serving as Seattle's lone defensive tackle until Young can take the field again.

OCTOBER 4, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Designated to return from IR Young (undisclosed) was designated to return from injured reserve Wednesday.

Impact Young has missed the entirety of the 2024 season so far with an undisclosed injury, but he will now have a 21-day window to return to practice and ultimately be added to the active roster. If he is not activated in that window, the defensive tackle will revert to injured reserve for the rest of the season.

OCTOBER 3, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Set to miss start of 2024 Young (undisclosed) was placed on the reserve/PUP list by the Seahawks on Tuesday, John Boyle of the team's official website reports.

Impact Young is dealing with an undisclosed injury, which forced him to miss the preseason, and he'll now be sidelined for at least the first four games of the 2024 season while on the PUP list. The earliest Young can return is Week 5 against the Giants on Oct. 6.

AUGUST 29, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Starts camp on PUP list The Seahawks placed Young (undisclosed) on the active/PUP list Thursday, John Boyle of the team's official website reports.

Impact Young was a fourth-round pick out of Mississippi State last year and played in 16 games as a rookie, making one start. Across 205 defensive snaps and another 86 on special teams, Young recorded 18 tackles (10 solo) and one tackle for loss. The nature of his injury is unclear at this time, but Young is eligible to be activated at any time this summer.
