Seahawks hoping Dion Jordan is at least a physical match of Bruce Irvin

Following a turbulent four-year start to his career, defensive end Dion Jordan was released by the Miami Dolphins and picked up by the Seattle Seahawks - connoisseurs of great athletes and reclamation projects. In Jordan, the team has just that: a terrific athlete, and quite the reclamation project.

Jordan, initially a big-time tight end recruit, enjoyed two productive seasons at the University of Oregon before moving onto the NFL and the dysfunction of the Dolphins franchise. Suspensions and position changes would follow for the tweener who posted just three sacks in 26 games in Miami, with just one of those being a start.
