SEATTLE, Wash. — The Seattle Seahawks have confirmed earlier reports that they have signed veteran tight end Greg Olsen.

The reports are calling it a one year deal worth $7 million for the Seahawks.

Olsen was released by the Panthers earlier this month after nine seasons with the team amid a rebuilding process under first-year coach Matt Rhule.

The three-time Pro Bowl selection has caught 718 passes for 8,444 yards receiving and 59 touchdowns during his 14-year NFL career.
