The Facts: With Thomas Rawls healthy enough to join C.J. Prosise in the backfield, the Seahawks have waived Michael.

Diehards Line: Michael is now subject to waivers. Thirty-one teams have shot to claim him Wednesday. According to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport, the decision to waive Michael has nothing to do with an off-the-field issue. It was strictly a football decision. "Rawls is better," Rapoport summed up.
