Futures deals are essentially camp invites that will give players the opportunity to compete for roster spots during offseason workouts and training camp.
Ferris wound up signing a three-year, $1.62 million contract with the Seahawks as an undrafted free agent out of Florida back in May of 2016.

During his college career at Florida, Ferris appeared in 38 games.
