Seahawks reach deal with DT Kevin Williams
During an offseason in which the Seattle Seahawks accomplished most of their key objectives, one issue that developed was their depth on the defensive line. Seattle lost three of the seven players who made up a defensive line rotation that was critical to the team’s Super Bowl win, cutting Red Bryant and Chris Clemons in salary cap moves, and seeing Clinton McDonald signed by Tampa Bay. The Seahawks took a big step toward plugging any potential leaks Thursday, however, agreeing to terms with veteran defensive tackle Kevin Williams (pictured), who played the last 11 years with Minnesota, where he made it to six Pro Bowls and was a five-time All-Pro selection. Williams, 33, was reported to have agreed to a one-year deal that could pay him more than $2 million. – Seattle Times
