Hawks Sign 6-Year Vet TE

Harrison Bryant. Anyone know much about him? I like his size. Camp fodder?

Seattle Seahawks sign 6-year veteran TE Harrison Bryant - Seattle Sports

Four days after the NFL Draft, the Seattle Seahawks turned back to free agency to sign veteran tight end Harrison Bryant.

Every year, they sign players so that they have a certain minimum number of bodies in each position group. So I say he starts out as "camp filler" but with those creds he has a decent chance to break the 53, if we keep 4 TE on the roster.

His best years were with Cleveland 20-22

HARRISON BRYANT STATS

One of the talking points coming out of the draft was about how the tight end class got overdrafted as a result of how the Rams/Seahawks were using tight ends. This was probably much more coming out of the Rams heavy usage of 13-personnel. I'm not saying he'll make the roster, but it's probably not an accident that he's a tight end and represents the kind of body they'll need through offseason minicamps and training camp.

Camp body imo..no room

Maybe a FB conversion?

 

[Sperrydogg]

I don’t know much about him except I found him on madden, he’s always a free agent, and he has good stats and high points the ball well, but that’s a video game

 

[Sperrydogg]

Maybe a FB conversion?

He’s pretty tall

Never hurts to have more competition.

Nice signing, Bryant's best football is ahead of him.
Competition for Saubert & Kallerup, insurance for Arroyo's availability. Also Arroyo is more of a WR and with that they could keep 4 TE's in name

Fleury will have no shortage of options at his fingertips. A little worried about our practice squad getting raided and think we'll see a couple of our cuts performing around the league this season.
John is far from done at this point.

Decent player. Nothing special. I suppose we signed him so the Rams couldn't run 6 TE sets next year.

I'm done poo-pooing old passaround TE's after what Eric Saubert did last year.
