The Seahawks released Burr-Kirven on Thursday, Curtis Crabtree of Fox 13 Seattle reports. Burr-Kirven never really got a chance to jumpstart his career in Seattle, as he tore his ACL before the start of his third season in the NFL and eventually missed the entire 2021 season as well as the 2022 campaign. The 25-year-old linebacker will now work toward another opportunity elsewhere to rejuvenate his playing career.

Burr-Kirven (knee) was waived with a failed physical designation Tuesday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports. Burr-Kirven suffered a season-ending ACL tear last August, and it was reported he would need an additional clean-up procedure in June. He had been a steady contributor on special teams for the Seahawks each of the last two seasons.

Coach Pete Carroll said Thursday that Burr-Kirven is set to have an additional clean-up procedure after suffering a season-ending torn ACL last August, Curtis Crabtree of Sports Radio 950 KJR Seattle reports. Carroll also added that Burr-Kirven's surgery will address some lingering scar tissue in his knee and he is questionable for the start of Seattle's training camp. The 2019 fifth-round pick collected 16 tackles and one forced fumble and was a major contributor on special teams over his first two seasons with the Seahawks. Burr-Kirven should have an opportunity to reprise his role on special teams heading into the final year of his rookie contract.

Burr-Kirven (knee) won't return to Saturday's preseason contest against the Broncos, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports. Burr-Kirven has been a special-teams ace for the Seahawks during his first two years in the NFL, playing in all 16 games and registering eight tackles each season. The extent of the 23-year-old's injury is unknown, but if he is forced to miss time, Aaron Donkor will have an opportunity to carve out a backup role behind Jordyn Brooks.

Burr-Kirven made the Seahawks' 53-man roster, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports. The Seahawks picked Burr-Kirven in the fifth round of April's draft, and he had an outstanding preseason to make the initial roster. While he outplayed Shaquem Griffin (knee) through preseason, he's still behind Jadeveon Clowney, K.J. Wright and Mychal Kendricks on the depth chart. Expect the Seahawks to give him situational work on defense while letting him maintain a role on special teams.
