The Seahawks got the good news they were looking for when running back Marshawn Lynch came back, but they also had to deal with some bad.

The team announced that tight end Anthony McCoy and defensive tackle Jesse Williams were placed on injured reserve. They also released wide receiver Randall Carroll and signed linebacker Marcus Dowtin and wide receiver Ronald Johnson.

McCoy tore his Achilles and Williams was carted off with what coach Pete Carroll called a “serious” knee injury.

Dowtin has spent time with the Jets, Eagles, Bills and Giants, while Johnson has spent time with the 49ers and Eagles.
