Seahawks Signing Veteran DE Bruce Irvin

Ian Rapoport reports that the Seahawks are signing veteran DE Bruce Irvin to a contract on Wednesday. 

Irvin, 32, is a former first-round pick of the Seahawks back in 2012. He spent four years in Seattle before signing a four-year, $37 million contract that included $19 million guaranteed with the Raiders in 2016.

The Raiders cut Irvin loose in 2018 and he later signed on with the Falcons and finished out the season in Atlanta. From there, he agreed to a one-year deal with the Panthers for 2019 and entered the market as an unrestricted free agent. 

In 2019, Irvin appeared in 13 games for the Panthers and recorded 36 tackles, 8.5 sacks, a forced fumble, a recovery and a pass defense. Pro Football Focus has him rated as the No. 73 edge rusher out of 107  qualifying players.
