We knew the Seahawks performed the man-bites-dog act of claiming a Jaguars player last night, but a new injury forced another move today.

The team announced the re-signing of running back Demetrius Bronson and the waiver claim of center Patrick Lewis today, and the release of linebacker Marcus Dowtin and guard Greg Van Roten.

Bronson was cut Monday, but they needed him back after running back Christine Michael tweaked his hamstring in practice Tuesday. As a result, he isn’t expected to play in the preseason finale tomorrow night.

And more than likely, Bronson will find his name in the transactions again soon, but not before he gets a last chance to make an impression — on the Seahawks or someone else.
