Seahawks Hosting DT Geno Atkins For Visit

According to Ian Rapoport, the Seahawks are hosting DT Geno Atkins for a visit on Monday. 

Atkins has been cleared from shoulder surgery and has been mulling his options this offseason.

He’d be a potentially big addition as a rotational interior pass rusher to a defensive line that already includes former Bengal Carlos Dunlap.

Atkins, 33, is a former fourth-round pick of the Bengals back in 2010. He was in the final year of a six-year, $56.423 million contract that included $31 million guaranteed when he signed a four-year, $65.3 million extension.

Atkins was set to make base salaries of $11.7 and $12.95 million the next two seasons when the Bengals released him back in March. 

In 2020, Atkins appeared in eight games for the Bengals and recorded just one tackle.
