J.R. Sweezy re-signs with Seahawks

Offensive guard J.R. Sweezy is back with the Seattle Seahawks.

The Seahawks re-signed the veteran lineman on Wednesday. Terms were not disclosed. Seattle waived/injured guard Avery Young in a corresponding move.

Sweezy, 29, spent his first four seasons with the Seahawks after being selected in the seventh round of the 2012 draft, starting 49 games. He signed as a free agent with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in 2016.

But the Buccaneers released Sweezy on June 29, moving on from the veteran offensive lineman who started 14 games at right guard for the team in 2017.
