John Gilbert is the Field Gulls Deputy Editor and has covered the NFL's Seattle Seahawks since 2016. He specializes in the salary cap, the collective bargaining agreement and statistical analysis, with an occasional film breakdown sprinkled in.

The Los Angeles Rams come to town with the lead in the NFC West on the line Sunday When the two teams take the field, the Rams will face a Seattle Seahawks squad that not only is aided by the return of Greg Olsen and Bryan Mone from injured reserve, but which has the benefit of extra depth at wide receiver.

Penny Hart, of course, was waived earlier this week to make room on the 53 man roster for Josh Gordon, only for the Hawks to see the league revoke his conditional reinstatement. While Gordon’s status remains up in the air, Hart cleared waivers and the Seahawks were able to bring him back to the practice squad.

Having spent the prior 15 weeks on the active roster, Hart had not been elevated yet this season and should be eligible to be elevated again in Week 17 should the team decide not to move him back to the active roster.

This news means the Seahawks have 54 players on the roster and that means we’ll see six inactives for Sunday’s rematch for the NFC West title.
