Former Packers linebacker Nick Perry to visit Seahawks, reports say

From the minute Nick Perry was released by the Green Bay Packers two weeks ago, he seemed an obvious potential Seahawks target.

That day has come, as Jason La Canfora of CBSSports.com reported Monday that Perry will visit the Seahawks this week.

A linebacker/edge rusher, Perry played for Seahawks coach Pete Carroll at USC before becoming a Packers first-round pick in 2012. He had 32 sacks in seven seasons with Green Bay, including 11 in 2016 and seven in 2017. He had just 1.5 in nine games last season while bothered by a knee sprain before being released in a cap-saving move.
