Seahawks re-signing backup QB Drew Lock, GM says

Seattle Seahawks general manager John Schneider made it clear before the start of free agency that the team wanted to re-sign backup quarterback Drew Lock in addition to starter Geno Smith.

After keeping Smith on a three-year deal earlier this month, they accomplished that goal by agreeing to terms with Lock on Thursday.

On his weekly radio appearance on Seattle Sports 710-AM, general manager John Schneider confirmed a report from the NFL Network that Seattle is bringing back Lock, though he declined to state the terms of the deal.

Schneider also confirmed a report from ESPN's Jeremy Fowler that Seattle has agreed to terms with former Detroit Lions center Evan Brown.
