Last year, two cornerstone members of the Seahawks left the organization. This year, one of them is coming back.
Per multiple reports, linebacker Bobby Wagner is returning to Seattle on a one-year, $7 million deal.
The Seahawks cut Wagner last year. He signed a contract with the Rams. It was due to pay him $11 million this year. The Rams released him, calling it a mutual decision, earlier this month.
The first word of Wagner’s deal came from teammate Quandre Diggs, who beat the group-text Twitter thumb racers to the punch.
Wagner, who turns 33 in June, was a second-round pick of the Seahawks in 2012. He spent 10 years in Seattle.
Now, the eight-time Pro Bowler and six-time All-Pro is back.
