Report: Seahawks acquire Sheldon Richardson from Jets

Sheldon Richardson

The Seattle Seahawks have made a major addition to their defensive line.

According to Mike Garafolo of NFL.com, the Seahawks have acquired defensive tackle Sheldon Richardson from the New York Jets in exchange for wide receiver Jermaine Kearse. Draft picks are also involved.

By all indications, Seattle has wanted Richardson for a while. He had an underwhelming season in 2016, but he has 18 sacks to his name over four NFL seasons, with 16.5 of them coming in his first three years. Kearse, meanwhile, will add some skill and experience to a badly depleted Jets receiving corps.
