A former Seattle Seahawks wide receiver has just signed with the UFL.

Powell had a cup of coffee with the Seahawks’ practice squad last season, signing with the team in November and recently being released from his reserve/future deal by Seattle last month. Prior to Seattle, Powell spent 2021-2024 with the Kansas City Chiefs, earning two Super Bowl rings with them during that time.
