Alex Collins ‘elevation from the training roster for the Seahawks’ game day lineup on Friday looked like the team’s last move before the weekend, but that was not the case.
Just hours before the scheduled start in Seattle for their playoffs and a game against Rams, the team had to put Jonathan Bullard on the reserve / COVID-19 list. It is not yet clear whether the change is the result of a positive test for Bullard himself or close contact.
Today @Seahawks list transactions: placed DE Jonathan Bullard in reserve / COVID-19 and activated DT Cedrick Lattimore from the training team.

The vacant vacancy in the 53-player squad was then filled by defensive striker newcomer Cedrick Lattimore, who signed with the team after the draft and spent the entire season in the team’s training squad.
Bullard has been an inactive game day for the Seahawks for the past few weeks, and with Jarran Reed, Bryan Mone and Poona Ford ready to play on Saturday, Lattimore is unlikely to prepare.
With Brandon Shell and Damarious Randall activated off the reserve / COVID-19 list earlier in the week, Bullard is the only player Seattle has on the list.
