RENTON — The Seattle Seahawks are expected to sign veteran guard Laken Tomlinson to a one-year deal, according to a person with knowledge of the deal.
The move adds some needed depth to the Seahawks’ offensive line, instantly providing them with an experienced option on the interior of the offensive line. That was viewed as a need for Seattle heading into the NFL draft later this month.
The person spoke to The Associated Press on Friday on the condition of anonymity because the team has not announced the signing. NFL Network first reported on the deal.
Tomlinson was a first-round pick of Detroit in 2015 out of Duke and has started 114 consecutive games dating to the 2017 season.
