Overview

  • Seattle agreed Tuesday to a one-year deal worth up to $5 million with Dante Fowler Jr., according to multiple outlets.
  • The move targets edge depth after Boye Mafe departed in free agency for the Bengals.
  • Fowler reunites with defensive coordinator Aden Durde, who coached him in Atlanta and Dallas, and he slots into a rotation with DeMarcus Lawrence, Uchenna Nwosu and Derick Hall.
  • The former No. 3 pick has 58.5 career sacks, including 10.5 with Washington in 2024 before posting three sacks in 17 games for Dallas in 2025.
  • Because the agreement came after the April 27 cutoff, it will not affect Seattle’s compensatory-pick formula, and the team carried roughly $32 million in cap space before the signing, per Over The Cap.
