The Seahawks have signed two-time All-Canadian Football League punter Josh Miller.

Miller punted the last two season for the CFL Baltimore Stallions and averaged 45.3 yards on 235 career punts, for a 39.5 net average.

He played college football at the University of Arizona and had a 38-yard punting average over two seasons.

Tommie Frazier, the Nebraska quarterback sidelined by blood clots and snubbed in the NFL draft, has received an offer from Montreal in the CFL.

An Alouettes spokesman told Omaha, Neb., station KETV that Frazier has been in Montreal since Monday with his mother, Priscilla Frazier, and his agent, Gregg Samms.

Alouettes spokesman Jacque Marrow said the team has made a conditional offer, but he would not elaborate.

Frazier, who is on blood-thinning medication for recurring clots in his leg, had said he would sit out a year and give the NFL another shot.

Linebacker Chris Slade, who has led New England in sacks over the last three seasons, signed a one-year contract with the Patriots.
