In the wake of the season-ending injury suffered by safety Earl Thomas, NFL Network reported Tuesday that the Seahawks plan to bring back safety Jeron Johnson.
Johnson played for the Seahawks from 2011-14 and for the Redskins last season. He spent the 2016 offseason and preseason with the Chiefs, who cut him when Eric Berry was cleared to return.
Johnson recently worked out for the Bucs, who signed Major Wright instead. Johnson played in 15 games last year for the Redskins and has played in 60 games in his career, mostly as a backup and special teams player.
As expected, the Seahawks placed Thomas on the season-ending injured-reserve list.
