    RENTON, Wash. -- The Seattle Seahawks have released wide receiver Reggie Williams, stalling the former top-10 overall draft pick's NFL comeback.

    The team announced Friday it had released the former top pick, along with receiver Victor James.

    The moves make roster room for the signings of rookie fourth-round choices Walter Thurmond and E.J. Wilson, plus fifth-round pick Kam Chancellor.

    Seattle now has signed six of its nine draft picks.

    Williams starred at the University of Washington and signed with the Seahawks following a free-agent tryout in April. Seattle coach Pete Carroll recruited Williams while coaching at USC.

    The former ninth overall pick is serving two years of probation stemming from a cocaine possession charge. He has been out of the league for a year.




    Another option if we want to pick up another WR

    He was let go by Jacksonville after the 2008 season and then did not play in the NFL in 2009.

    I don't think he'd be an upgrade over what we have right now.

    jtrain is silly period. He'd like us to inquire about every flash in the pan that hits the market.

    PASS on Reggie Williams.

    Jake beat me to it. People on the short bus simply have too much stimuli to function with normal people.
