The Seahawks waived Johnson on Tuesday, Bob Condotta reports.

EDGE Analysis

Following a strong collegiate career at Louisiana-Monroe, Johnson signed a deal with the Seahawks hoping to fit into a crowded running back room. Unfortunately for the 5-foot-9 rookie, strong showings from Alex Collins and Rashaad Penny forced Seattle to waive Johnson. The Seahawks hope to bring back Johnson to their practice squad if he can clear waivers.
