The Seahawks have agreed to terms with third-round pick Rees Odhiambo, Mike Garafolo of FOX Sports reported Thursday.

A tackle at Boise State, the Seahawks believe Odhiambo will compete for a starting job at left guard this season.

A native Kenyan, Odhiambo didn’t start playing football until he was a sophomore in high school. He was a first-team All-Mountain West pick last fall despite missing time with a broken ankle.

The Seahawks are one of a few teams moving quickly to get their draft picks under contract.
