Source: FIU RB Anthony Jones, shot in '18, agrees to deal with Seahawks

As usual, the Seattle Seahawks' 2020 draft class includes several players who at some point in their lives have overcome a significant personal hardship, a characteristic that appeals to coach Pete Carroll and general manager John Schneider.

The same is true for one of their undrafted free agents, Anthony Jones, a running back from Florida International who was seriously injured in a drive-by shooting in 2018.

Jones, a relative of Minnesota Vikings running back Dalvin Cook, agreed to a deal with Seattle after going undrafted Saturday, a source told ESPN's Adam Schefter.
