The Seattle Seahawks spent the 2023 season getting pushed around quite often, in part because the team lacked a true nose tackle able to eat space and clog up the middle of the field.
This was a result of Bryan Mone spending the entirety of the 2023 season on the physically unable to perform list, after the Hawks had cut Al Woods for “cash and cap” reasons during the offseason. Now, however, the Seahawks are set to add some beef to the interior of the defensive line, according to a report from Michael Gehlken, the Dallas Cowboys beat reporter for the Dallas Morning News.
Former Cowboys NT Johnathan Hankins is expected to sign with the Seahawks, a person close to the situation said. Both teams were interested. Seahawks offered more.
