The Seahawks have waived wide receiver Michael Bumpus to reach the 75-man roster limit.

Bumpus signed with Seattle as an undrafted rookie free agent April 27, 2008. He played in four games last year, starting once. He caught five passes for 48 yards and one touchdown.

NFL teams must trim rosters to 53 players by Sept. 5.
