The Seattle Seahawks have reached an agreement to sign wide receiver Laviska Shenault, according to @AdamSchefter of ESPN. The move marks the second addition to the Seattle receiving corps in recent days as the team continues to bolster its roster depth.
Shenault, a former second-round pick, joins the Seahawks after previous stints with the Jacksonville Jaguars and Carolina Panthers. Known for his physical playing style and versatility, Shenault has experience contributing both as a traditional wideout and as a ball-carrier out of the backfield. He also provides significant value on special teams as a return specialist.
This transaction follows a series of moves by the Seahawks front office to reshape the wide receiver room behind established starters DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett. The signing is expected to create high-level competition for the remaining spots on the depth chart heading into training camp.
Details regarding the length and financial terms of the contract have not yet been made public. Shenault will look to revitalize his career in Seattle's offensive system after battling injuries in recent seasons.
