Seahawks lose Tom Johnson as he re-signs with Vikings after release from Seahawks

So long Tom Johnson, Seahawks fans hardly got to know ye.

The veteran defensive tackle, signed by Seattle as a free agent last March to help replace the departed Sheldon Richardson, has agreed to sign with the Vikings — his former team — on Tuesday after he has been released by the Seahawks over the weekend.

Seattle cut the 34-year-old to make room on the 53-man roster for safety Shalom Luani, needing the depth at that spot in the wake of an injury to backup Delano Hill, who was inactive for Monday’s game against the Bears.
