The Seahawks released fullback Will Tukuafu Wednesday.

Tukuafu had been released earlier this month then brought back last week. He played seven offensive snaps last weekend vs. the Rams.

He was the team’s only fullback. The Seahawks did not make a corresponding roster move and are likely waiting until later in the week to see if injuries force them to promote someone from the practice squad.

With Doug Baldwin and Tyler Lockett banged up, the Seahawks added wide receiver Kasen Williams to their practice squad Wednesday. Williams spent time on the team’s practice squad and active roster last season.

Tukuafu is a veteran of six seasons with the 49ers and Seahawks. He played in 14 games for the Seahawks last season.
