The Seattle Seahawks just made a… well, let’s call it an interesting move.
Linebacker Mychal Kendricks was recently released by the Cleveland Browns following pleading guilty to charges of insider trading. The Seahawks don’t seem to mind and just want to add talent where needed on their roster, so they’re reportedly signing him.

The Seahawks want to win. Kendricks can possibly help them do it– at least until he’s sentenced in December.

New Seahawks’ LB Mychal Kendricks pled guilty last week to insider trading. He is scheduled to be sentenced Jan. 24. Based on federal guidelines, he could face 30-37 months in prison.
