Seahawks' Coby Bryant: Leads team in tackles Sunday
Rotowire
Bryant recorded eight tackles (seven solo) during Sunday's 38-35 loss versus the Buccaneers.
Bryant played all 58 of Seattle's defensive snaps in Week 5, and he tallied eight stops for the second time in 2025. He's on pace for a career year in that category, but he's still not on the IDP radar in most formats ahead of a Week 6 matchup at Jacksonville.

Seahawks' Coby Bryant: Picks off another pass Thursday
Rotowire
Bryant recorded an interception during Thursday's 23-20 win at Arizona.
Bryant was on the field for all 67 of the Seahawks' defensive snaps in Week 4, and quarterback Kyler Murray barely ever threw in his direction. One of the few times he did, however, Bryant settled under an overthrown ball in the middle of the field for his second interception of the season (although he did ultimately fumble the ball back to the Cardinals). His prowess in coverage continues to limit his tackling opportunities and hurt his value as an IDP asset.

Seahawks' Coby Bryant: Impresses in new role
Rotowire
Bryant recorded 73 tackles (48 solo) and six pass defenses, including three interceptions -- one of which was a pick-six -- across 17 games during 2024.
Bryant entered the 2025 season as a special-teams player and a backup defensive back, but he ended up starting in Week 7 and never looked back, starting the final 11 games. The 2022 fourth-round pick mostly played cornerback in college, but his transition to a full-time safety role looks complete. Bryant may need to battle to retain the role in 2025 depending on the Seahawks' offseason moves.

Rotowire
Bryant was a limited participant in Thursday's practice due to an illness, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Bryant practiced in full Wednesday but appears to have picked up an illness between that session and Thursday's. It's not clear how severe the safety's ailment is, but his ability to practice Thursday -- albeit in a limited fashion -- may be a positive sign of his chance of suiting up Sunday versus San Francisco. Bryant served in a rotational role early in the campaign but has worked as a starter in each of Seattle's past three games.

Bryant (toe) has been is inactive for Monday's contest with the Giants.
Bryant was considered doubtful to play, so his absence comes as no surprise.

Seahawks' Coby Bryant: Doubtful for Week 4
Rotowire
Bryant (toe) is listed as doubtful for Monday's contest against the Giants, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Bryant missed Week 3 against the Panthers and was unable to participate in practice this week.

Seahawks' Coby Bryant: Getting work at safety
Rotowire
Bryant started at safety during Thursday's preseason win over the Vikings, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.
Bryant also lined up in the box and impressed head coach Pete Carroll with his ability to make reads and cover ground. Carroll thinks that safety will "be a good spot for [Bryant]." The Cincinnati product came into the league as a cornerback, so there may be some growing pains. However, Bryant could get an immediate opportunity to start if Jamal Adams (quadriceps), who is still on the PUP list, isn't ready for Week 1. Julian Love is Bryant's main competition for the role.

Seahawks' Coby Bryant: Wins nickel corner role
Rotowire
Bryant is expected to start the 2022 season as the Seahawks' starting nickel corner, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.
The Seahawks traded Ugo Amadi to the Eagles earlier in August and cut both Marquise Brown -- a 2019 second-round pick -- and Justin Coleman on Tuesday. Those three players were the only other corners to onsistently take slot reps. Bryant may have a short leash, but he has impressed during training camp and the preseason to secure the starting job.
