After grabbing the attention of Seattle fans in the 2023 preseason, Bell had a quiet regular season before winding up on injured reserve and has now been waived by the Hawks.
The Seattle Seahawks raised the hopes of many fans in the 2024 NFL Draft by adding youth and talent to a roster that has been largely overhauled in the first offseason under new head coach Mike Macdonald.
Adding the likes of Byron Murphy, Tyrice Knight and Nehemiah Pritchett has many fans excited for the Seahawks defense in 2024, but how the team performs on the field won’t be known until the regular season opens in September.
However, one thing that is known is that one 2023 fan favorite, practice squad OLB Levi Bell, won’t be a part of the defense.
The #Seahawks waived OLB Levi Bell today. Leaves them with 72 on the roster ahead of UDFA signing becoming official later this week. https://t.co/0gsFovnYZE

Bell spent the 2023 USFL season with the Michigan Panthers, recording 17 tackles and 4 sacks before signing with the Seahawks ahead of training camp. He grabbed the attention of many Seattle fans when he burst onto the scene in the preseason opener against the Minnesota Vikings, recording 5 pressures including a sack and recording ten tackles through the preseason.
