Seahawks Signing G Laken Tomlinson
Mark Konezny-USA TODAY Sports

Tom Pelissero of NFL Media reports that the Seahawks are signing G Laken Tomlinson to a one-year contract on Friday.

According to Jeremy Fowler, Tomlinson receives a one-year, $4 million contract from Seattle. 

Reports had said that Tomlinson was on the Seahawks’ radar as a potential addition this offseason.

It’s worth mentioning that signing him to a contract won’t impact a team’s 2025 compensatory picks, given that he was released this offseason. 

Tomlinson, 32, is a former first-round pick out of Duke by the Lions in the 2015 NFL Draft. The 49ers acquired him from the Lions in exchange for a 2019 fifth-round pick in 2017.

He was entering the final year of his four-year, $8.55 million rookie contract that included $6.949 million guaranteed when he signed a three-year $18 million extension with San Francisco. 

Tomlinson played out his contract and was line to be an unrestricted free agent when he signed a three-year deal with the Jets. However, the Jets released Tomlinson this offseason. 

In 2023, Tomlinson appeared in and started all 17 games for the Jets.
