After Pro Bowl season with Jets, Myers lands back in Seattle

RENTON, Wash. (AP) — When kicker Jason Myers became a free agent in the offseason following a Pro Bowl campaign last season, Seattle was near the top of his destination list.

Good thing for Myers that Seattle special teams coordinator Brian Schneider had the kicker as the clear top option for solving the Seahawks' kicking situation.

"The way I looked at it, when I evaluated college kickers, I had Jason Myers at the top of my board," Schneider said Thursday.

A year after losing a training camp competition in Seattle and watching Sebastian Janikowski claim the job, Myers is back with the Seahawks.
