Seahawks re-signing DT Jarran Reed to 3-year deal
SEATTLE - The Seattle Seahawks reached a deal with defensive tackle Jarran Reed on a three-year contract extension, a source confirmed to FOX 13 Seattle.
Reed, who was set to become a free agent in a few days, will re-sign a deal worth up to $25 million, ESPN reports.

The news comes on the heels of an announcement that Seahawks quarterback Geno Smith would be traded to the Las Vegas Raiders just last Friday.
"Re-signing a 10th-year veteran in Reed signals that the Seahawks are not in a full-on rebuild despite all the notable names they've parted with over the last few days," reports Brady Henderson with ESPN.
Reed, 32, has played seven of his nine seasons in the NFL with the Seahawks, including each of the last two seasons. Reed played in all 17 games last season with 45 tackles and 4.5 sacks. Reed is one of just four interior defensive lineman in Seahawks history to have a double-digit sack season along with Cortez Kennedy, John Randle and Leonard Williams.
More players are staying on as well, with news cornerback Josh Jobe, signing a contract extension last week just before becoming a restricted free agent.
Also last week, Seahawks released receiver Tyler Lockett after 10 seasons in Seattle. Lockett wasn't the only one, the team released four players in salary cap moves.
