Mike Garafolo of NFL Media reports that the Seahawks have re-signed S Bradley McDougald to a three-year, $13.95 million deal on Monday, preventing him from reaching the open market.
Keeping McDougald was clearly a priority for the Seahawks, considering that they could lose Kam Chancellor to a serious neck injury.
McDougald, 27, originally signed on with the Chiefs as an undrafted free agent out of Kansas back in 2013. He was on and off of their practice squad during his rookie season before he waived in November of 2013 and later claimed off of waivers by the Buccaneers.
The Buccaneers brought McDougald back on a second-round tender that cost them $2.5 million for the 2016 season. However, he departed last March for a one-year contract with the Seahawks.
In 2017, McDougald appeared in all 16 games for the Seahawks and recorded 75 tackles, no interceptions and four pass defenses.
We had him featured in our Top 100 – 2018 NFL Free Agents list.
