Looking to bolster their return game for a postseason run, the Seahawks will reportedly sign the most decorated return man in the history of football.
Fox Sports' Jay Glazer reported Seattle would sign Devin Hester on Wednesday. ESPN's Adam Caplan reported undrafted rookie safety Tyvis Powell would be waived to make room for Hester on the Seahawks' 53-man active roster.

Hester immediately becomes the favorite to win the return duties for Seattle, which lost wide receiver/returner Tyler Lockett with a broken fibula and tibia in his right leg in a Week 16 home loss to the Arizona Cardinals on Christmas Eve.
