The departure of lineman Max Pircher and defensive tackle Kyon Barrs from Seattle’s practice squad coincides with their signings.

In a September 4 story, Corbin K. Smith of Sports Illustrated wrote, “On Tuesday, during the team’s off day, both Bohanna and Odumegwu worked out for Seattle.”

He continued by saying that they “had one vacancy and an exempted spot available to sign each player” following the release of Barrs and Pircher from the practice squad.

Odumegwu takes over for Pircher as the team’s practice squad exemption for a 17th position because he is an International Pathway Player.

Kole Musgrove of USA Today’s Seahawks Wire reported in a different article regarding the deal that the Hawks had the opportunity to observe Bohanna in action during joint workouts.

During their joint workouts, the Seahawks had a close-up look at Bohanna, additional evidence that the preseason isn’t just an opportunity to showcase yourself to your club but also to all other teams in the league.

Bohanna has so far in his career totaled 39 tackles, Musgrove wrote in the September 4 article.

Bohanna and the present coaching staff of the Seahawks are somewhat related because the defensive tackle played for Aden Durde, the current defensive coordinator for Seattle, while he was a member of the Cowboys defensive line.

The NFL History of Quinton Bohanna Bohanna was chosen by the Cowboys with the 192nd overall pick in the sixth round of the 2021 NFL draft.

Jason Schandl declared at the time that Bohanna was a “fan favorite.” According to Sandl’s article from August 29, 2023, “2021 sixth-round pick Quinton Bohanna had become something of a fan favorite, and many around Dallas were really rooting for him to make the 53-man roster for 2023 after a strong start to training camp.”

Fans adore him for having a terrifyingly strong monster in the middle, and Schandl continued, saying that his stature and strength inspired hope for his future.

However, he didn’t demonstrate enough progress in actual game action in preseason.

Bohanna was a player for the Tennessee Titans and Detroit Lions in the 2023 season. During the season, he made six appearances, starting three against the Titans and Lions.

Bohanna was identified by Titan Sized’s Ryan Heckman as a player on the “roster bubble” back in May of this year.

In the article published on May 8, he stated, “Tennessee made a statement when they drafted T’Vondre Sweat in the second round.”

“He’ll immediately step into a starting role, displacing Quinton Bohanna and Keondre Coburn by one spot apiece.” August of this year saw Bohanna’s release from Tennessee.
