The Seattle Seahawks and Minnesota Vikings swapped defensive tackles in free agency in 2018, with the Vikings signing Sheldon Richardson from Seattle and the Hawks in return signing both Tom Johnson and Shamar Stephen. All three players signed one year contracts for 2018, though Johnson returned to Minnesota barely more than a week into the season after being cut by the Seahawks due to roster issues.
With the 2019 free agency period having arrived, it is not Stephen’s turn to board a return flight to the Vikings, as reports on social media indicate that is where he is heading.
