Burns agent Drew Rosenhaus says his client signed with the Seahawks for 1 year for $ 2 million.

Sounds like what we paid him last year. Hopefully it's not guaranteed.

That seems like a lot for a guy that barely played last year.

I guess so as a back up he's relatively expensive, but this player was drafted 25th OA when drafted in 2016 and surely as a long armed CB was a player of interest then to the Hawks. Given the recent knee scope surgery on Woolen, Burns is solid insurance at the position. Last season he was barely healthy and fought a hamstring problem all season.

Here's a WIKI on Burns:

OTC has the contracts for Arte Burns and Mario Edwards. Both are on minimum vet deals. Burns is all non-guaranteed money. Edwards got the $152,500 bonus, which is the max to keep the veteran minimum benefit.
