Paxton Lynch, Seahawks Reportedly Agree to Contract

The Seattle Seahawks and quarterback Paxton Lynch reportedly reached an agreement on Thursday that will bring the former first-round pick back to the NFL after sitting out last season.

Ian Furness of Sports Radio KJR 950 reported terms of the free-agent signing.

The Broncos selected Lynch in the first round of the 2016 NFL draft after his standout junior campaign with the Memphis Tigers. He completed 66.8 percent of his throws for 3,776 yards with 28 touchdown passes and just four interceptions across 13 games.

The 24-year-old failed to live up to expectations in Denver, though.
