Seattle elevated defensive tackle Damon "Snacks" Harrison to the active roster to take Olsen's spot.

Harrison had been added off the practice squad for the previous two games and was expected to be added to the active roster this week.

Olsen was injured in the fourth quarter of Seattle's 28-21 win over the Cardinals and is expected to miss at least four to six weeks.
