The Seattle Seahawks on Tuesday signed running back Zac Brooks to the practice squad, releasing wide receiver Antwan Goodley to clear a spot.

The move comes after coach Pete Carroll said Monday that running back Thomas Rawls, who missed last week's 37-18 win over the 49ers, has a fracture in his fibula, an injury that could sideline him for a month.

The Seahawks selected Brooks in the seventh round of this year's NFL draft, but the Clemson product failed to make the roster. Limited by a hamstring injury during camp, Brooks received limited playing time in two preseason games, rushing six times for 17 yards and catching one pass for four yards.

While Christine Michael is off to the best start of his career, the rest of the Seahawks' running back group remains in flux. Rookie C.J. Prosise, a third-round pick out of Notre Dame, is dealing with a broken bone in his hand that's forced him to miss the past two games. But on Monday, Carroll expressed hope that the third-down back could play this week against the Jets at MetLife Stadium.

On Saturday, the Seahawks added second-year running back Terrence Magee to the 53-man roster after signing him to the practice squad earlier in the week. Magee, an undrafted second-year product out of LSU, has spent time with the Ravens and Rams.

The only other running back on the 53-man roster is rookie Alex Collins, who has six carries for 12 yards in two games.

According to Patriots beat reporter Doug Kyed, the Seahawks on Tuesday also brought in running backs Kenny Hilliard and Bernard Pierce, fullbacks Darrel Young and Tommy Bohanon, along with defensive back Chimdi Chekwa, wideout Jamel Johnson, linebacker Randell Johnson and defensive end Rufus Johnson.

The Seahawks don't have a fullback on the 53-man roster after waiving Will Tukuafu and Tani Tupou, who started the season-opening win over Miami.
