Seahawks Sign Terrion Arnold Weeks After Agreeing to Deal

The one-year minimum deal adds depth at cornerback, but Arnold is expected to miss practice and games while his legal case continues.

  • The Seattle Seahawks signed free-agent cornerback Terrion Arnold on Saturday, with the NFL expected to place him on the Commissioner's Exempt List, preventing him from practicing or playing.
  • Arnold, a 2024 first-round pick, became a free agent after the Detroit Lions released him in June following his arrest. He faces four felony counts each of kidnapping and armed robbery in Florida.
  • Head coach Mike Macdonald cited strong endorsements from former Alabama teammates for the signing. "It was an opportunity to bring on a player that we felt strongly about during the draft process," Macdonald said.
  • Seattle waived offensive tackle Derrick Graham on Saturday to clear 91-man roster space for Arnold. While on the exempt list, Arnold remains under contract and continues to receive pay.
  • The signing secures the Seahawks' rights to Arnold as an exclusive or restricted free agent beyond this season. His status remains tied to a status hearing scheduled for October 5 in Tampa, Florida.
