At the close of the 2022 season, Seahawks coach Pete Carroll said the team needed to “become more dynamic up front” on its defensive line.
Seattle took a big step toward doing that Monday night, reaching agreement with one of the top defensive linemen on the free-agent market — Denver’s Dre’Mont Jones — on the first day that teams could negotiate with pending free agents from other teams.
A league source confirmed that the move is expected, while Jones himself tweeted that he was headed to Seattle, stating in part that he is now “a Hawk! Let’s Go!!”
