Seahawks waive rookie for sneaking woman into team hotel
In the new NFL world, the routine now involves following team protocols in order to help the 2020 season start without any pandemic-related hiccups. One Seattle Seahawks rookie did not get the memo.
The #Seahawks cut rookie CB Kemah Siverand this week after he was caught on video trying to sneak a female visitor into the team hotel, per sources.
Clear message on the responsibility everyone has in the NFL’s COVID-19 world: Put the team at risk, suffer the consequences.

The report from NFL Media’s Tom Pelissero goes on to note that the woman was wearing Seahawks gear in an attempt to disguise her as a player.
There’s not enough facepalm memes in the world to react to this idiocy from Mr. Siverand.

NFL teams are going out of their way to create an environment free of COVID-19. Recent test results are a testament to both the league and its teams doing everything possible to start the 2020 NFL season on Sept. 10.
Although, this is just a continuation of professional athletes struggling to adjust with the times. We just recently saw multiple Cleveland Indians players removed from their team’s active roster for breaking protocols.
