The Pittsburgh Steelers acquired tight end Nick Vannett from the Seattle Seahawks via a trade Tuesday night and apparently they had been in pursuit of the Ohio State product for quite a while.
During his Wednesday press conference, Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll reportedly said that the Steelers had been pursuing Vannett for some time and that Seattle general manager John Schneider finally decided to pull the trigger on the deal that netted his team a 2020 fifth-round draft pick.
Pete Carroll confirms that Luke Willson is back with the Seahawks.
