Aaron Wilson reports that the Seahawks are signing Barkevious Mingo to a two-year, $6.8 million deal.
The Jaguars were reportedly interested in Mingo too, but it looks like the Seahawks managed to get him under contract.
Mingo, 27, was the No. 6 overall pick back in 2013. He played out the final year of his four-year, $16.347 million rookie contract but the Browns declined Mingo’s fifth-year option that would have cost them $11.9 million in 2017.
Cleveland later traded Mingo to the Patriots for 2017 fifth-round pick.
Last year, the Colts signed Mingo to a one-year, $2.5 million contract and he was once again testing the open market as an unrestricted free agent this offseason.
In 2017, Mingo appeared in all 16 games for the Colts and recorded 47 tackles, two sacks, three forced fumbles, three recoveries and two pass defenses.
We have him featured in our Top 100 – 2018 NFL Free Agents list.
