Walter Thurmond is back from his four-game suspension.

Thurmond, who missed the last four weeks because the NFL suspended him for violating its substance-abuse policy, has been activated from the roster exempt status and is now on Seattle’s 53-man roster.

The Seahawks’ secondary hasn’t seemed to miss Thurmond, but having him back for the playoffs won’t be a bad thing.

With Thurmond back, the Seahawks have released cornerback Perrish Cox, who signed after Thurmond’s suspension and played in two games.
