In the end, he only spent one season away from Seattle. Bobby Wagner returns to Seattle.
“Glad to be back,” the linebacker told NFL Media.
According to our colleagues, Wagner signed a one-year contract for 7 million dollars.
And it’s not a jubilee. At 32, Wagner is coming off a very productive season with the Rams. Holder during the 17 games of the season, he accumulated 140 tackles, 10 quarterback hits and 2 interceptions. Enough to offer him a place among the second All-Pro team.
On the Seattle side, last season showed that there is no question of a reconstruction. Geno Smith’s extension confirmed that the franchise intends to join the fight for the playoffs in 2023. The return of Wagner will bring an additional layer of experience to the defense. He joins rookie Dre’Mont Jones, or players already present and talented like Tariq Woolen.
Selected in the second round by Seattle in 2012, the linebacker won the title in 2013-14. In ten seasons with the franchise, he was selected as an All-Pro eight times.
