Hankins signed a contract with the Seahawks on Tuesday, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
Hankins spent last season in Dallas starting 14 regular-season games and racking up 27 tackles (13 solo), including 3.0 sacks, and two pass breakups. His presence should strengthen the deep of Seattle's defensive line in 2024.

Hankins racked up 27 tackles (13 solo), including 3.0 sacks, and two pass breakups across 14 regular-season appearances with the Cowboys in 2023.
EDGE Analysis
Hankins missed three games down the stretch due to a high-ankle sprain, and he otherwise was unspectacular for Dallas while on the field. Now a pending unrestricted free agent and heading into his age-32 season, Hankins isn't necessarily a lock to secure another starting role for the 2024 campaign. His best prospects might be to re-sign with the Cowboys on a team-friendly deal.

Hankins (ankle) is active for Sunday's game against the Commanders.
EDGE Analysis
Hankins was a limited participant in all three practices this week, and he will make his return from a three-game absence due to a high-ankle sprain. He'll slide into the starting defensive tackle spot alongside Osa Odighizuwa for the Cowboys' regular-season finale.

Hankins (ankle) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's game against the Commanders.
EDGE Analysis
Hankins has missed the Cowboys' last three games with a high-ankle sprain, but after a week of limited practice sessions, he's got a shot at suiting up Sunday. If the 31-year-old is unable to make his return in Week 18, expect 2023 first-round pick Mazi Smith to see increased work on Dallas' defensive line.

Hankins (ankle) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Lions, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Hankins continue to nurse an ankle injury that occurred in Week 14 versus Philadelphia. He hasn't been able to play since and may not be close to a return given that he wasn't able to practice in any capacity again this week. Hankins had been gaining some traction as a pass rusher before getting hurt, tallying three sacks across the two games prior to the injury.

Hankins (ankle) was considered a non-participant at the Cowboys' walkthrough Tuesday, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Hankins has missed the last two games while dealing with an ankle injury and he has yet to return to practice. The defensive tackle will likely have to participate in some capacity before the end of the week in order to be back on the field for the team's Week 17 matchup with the Lions on Saturday.

Hankins (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's contest against the Dolphins, Bobby Belt of 105.3 The Fan reports.
EDGE Analysis
Hankins missed all three practice sessions for the second straight week as he deals with a high-ankle sprain he sustained in Week 14 against the Eagles. Mazi Smith got extended snaps at defensive tackle alongside starter Osa Odighizuwa in the Cowboys' Week 15 loss to the Bills, and the former figures to reprise that role for Sunday's game.

EDGE Analysis
Hankins sustained a high-ankle sprain in the Cowboys' Week 14 win over the Eagles. He did not participate in practice all week and will miss his first game of the season. Mazi Smith, Neville Gallimore and Chauncey Golston are all candidates to fill in as the starting defensive tackle alongside Osa Odighizuwa for Sunday's game.
