The Seahawks are adding a former New York Giants third-round draft pick for depth with Pro Bowl defensive lineman Michael Bennettsidelined for a few weeks.
Seattle has signed defensive end Damontre Moore, NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport reported, via a source informed of the move.
Viewed by some as a first-round talent coming out of Texas A&M in 2013, Moore was a preseason sensation as a rookie but ultimately failed to replace Mathias Kiwanuka in the hybrid stand-up outside linebacker and down defensive end role.
Expect Frank Clark, Cassius Marsh and Jarran Reed to pick up extra snaps in Bennett's absence, leaving Moore as an insurance policy.
