Robert Turbin – Seattle Seahawks
An ankle injury set to sideline Seahawks running back Robert Turbin led to their decision to waive him. The Seahawks acted swiftly last week when the Bills released Fred Jackson and subsequently signed the veteran back, presumably with the plan to release Turbin.
#Seahawks RB Robert Turbin (ankle) to be waived with an injury designation, source said. He’s out for about 5 weeks. Will someone claim him?

If the Cowboys were to show an interest in Turbin, it wouldn’t be to replace the double figure touchdown rate of DeMarco Murray. In three years Turbin has failed to find the endzone, finding himself in more run blocking plays.
