Super Bowl champion Seahawks signing CB charged with kidnapping
Cornerback Terrion Arnold, facing felony kidnapping and robbery charges, joins the Seahawks after posting $1 million bond as the NFL reviews his exempt-list status.
- On Thursday, the Seattle Seahawks agreed to a one-year deal with free-agent cornerback Terrion Arnold after he completed workouts and visits with multiple NFL teams including Houston, New Orleans, and New York.
- The Detroit Lions released Arnold in late June after he faced eight felony charges including kidnapping and armed robbery stemming from a February incident in Florida; a judge granted him a $1 million bond.
- Seahawks general manager John Schneider and head coach Mike Macdonald consulted quarterback Jalen Milroe, as featured on HBO's 'Hard Knocks,' with Milroe endorsing Arnold as a 'difference-maker' for the organization.
- Despite the signing, the NFL must still determine whether to place Arnold on the Commissioner's Exempt List, a decision that could indefinitely bar him from playing and practicing this season.
- With a status hearing scheduled for October 5 in Tampa, defense attorney R. Timothy Jansen stated Arnold is 'absolutely denying these allegations,' citing 'no credible evidence' against him per his legal team.
