Defensive tackle Gary Smith III was released from the practice squad in a corresponding move.

The 25-year-old Brevard went undrafted out of Texas before signing with the Kansas City Chiefs as a free agent in May. The Chiefs released Brevard before the start of the season and re-signed him to the practice squad, but then released the 346-pound defensive lineman again. He has yet to appear in an NFL game during the regular season.

Brevard began his college career at Penn State in 2021 before spending the next three seasons at Purdue. He then transferred to Texas for his final college campaign. In 51 games over five seasons, he had nine tackles for loss, 2.5 sacks, two passes defended and two fumble recoveries.

Smith, a 25-year-old who went undrafted out of UCLA this year, was signed to Seattle’s practice squad on Sept. 29, but has yet to appear in an NFL regular-season game.
