Burns signed with the Seahawks' practice squad Wednesday. Burns was dropped by Seattle on Tuesday after being activated off injured reserve Saturday, but it now appears he'll remain with the Seahawks after joining their practice squad Wednesday.

Burns signed with the Seahawks' practice squad Wednesday. Burns was dropped by Seattle on Tuesday after being activated off injured reserve Saturday, but it now appears he'll remain with the Seahawks after joining their practice squad Wednesday. The veteran corner seems to be past his toe injury and could be elevated to the active roster if the team faces injuries in the secondary later this season.
The Seahawks waived Burns (toe) on Tuesday, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports. Burns was activated off the Seahawks' injured reserve this past Saturday, but he did not play in Sunday's loss to the Packers despite logging full practices all week. The 2016 first-round pick appeared in just one regular-season game for the Seahawks (Week 6 against the 49ers), which is when he suffered a toe injury that was severe enough to warrant a lengthy stint on IR. Burns should garner interest on waivers from teams in need of veteran depth at corner.
Burns (toe) is inactive for Sunday night's game versus Green Bay. The Seahawks activated Burns from injured reserve over the weekend, but he was listed as doubtful to play. The veteran cornerback hasn't played since Week 6, which was his lone appearance of the season.
Seattle activated Burns (toe) off injured reserve Saturday, but he remains doubtful to suit up Sunday against Green Bay, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports. Burns landed on IR in mid-October due to a toe injury. The Seahawks opened his practice window Wednesday, and Burns was able to participate in full at practice throughout the week, but he probably won't play Sunday as he works to get back up to speed. Burns has played in only one game this season, logging one tackle and two pass defenses Week 6 against San Francisco.
Burns (toe) was designated to return from injured reserve Wednesday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports. Burns has been sidelined for the Seahawks' last seven games after sustaining a toe injury in a Week 6 loss to the 49ers, but Wednesday's return to practice indicates he's almost past the issue. If activated to Seattle's active roster in time, Burns has a chance to play in Sunday night's matchup against the Packers, likely serving as a depth piece in the Seahawks' secondary.
The Seahawks placed Burns on injured reserve Tuesday due to a toe injury, John Boyle of the team's official site reports. Burns injured his toe during the Seahawks' Week 6 loss against the 49ers on Thursday. It's the same toe he injured during the preseason, and the 2016 first-round pick will be forced to miss at least the next four regular-season games, making Week 12 against the Cardinals on Nov. 24 the earliest he can return.
Burns suffered a foot injury in Thursday's Week 6 game against San Francisco and has been ruled out for the remainder of the contest, Gregg Bell of The Tacoma News Tribune reports. Burns was hurt during the second half and was ruled out in the fourth quarter. The 29-year-old was playing in his first game of the campaign Thursday. Burns logged one tackle and two pass defenses prior to his exit.
Burns (coach's decision) is inactive Sunday against the Broncos. Burns was promoted from the practice squad Saturday but ultimately will stay on the sidelines Week 1. The 29-year-old will likely revert to the practice squad, but he may find himself with the opportunity to suit up Week 2 against the Patriots.
Seattle elevated Burns from its practice squad for Sunday's game versus the Broncos, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports. Burns was carted off the field with a toe injury during the Seahawks' final preseason game versus the Browns, but he's now apparently back in playing shape for Week 1 action. If he plays Sunday, a significant share of his snaps could come on special teams.
