The Seahawks on Thursday signed placekicker Olindo Mare, as reported by Yahoo Sports. Terms of the contract were not disclosed, but the Seattle Post-Intelligencer reported the deal was for two years and worth $3.5 million. Mare fills a need for the Seahawks, replacing Josh Brown, who signed with the Rams as a free agent.

Marcus Trufant has agreed to a six-year, $50.2 million deal with the Seattle Seahawks. Trufant received the franchise tag from Seattle in February.

The Seahawks signed linebacker D.D. Lewis and defensive end Chris Cooper to one-year contracts Tuesday, bringing each back to the team after recent stints, according to an Associated Press report.

Lofa Tatupu and the Seahawks have agreed to a new contract for the Pro Bowl linebacker through the 2015 season, according to an Associated Press report.

The signing of Julius Jones has clouded the future of Shaun Alexander with the Seahawks, and there are rumors that he could be released, according to the Seattle Times. "We're going to have some discussions with the Seahawks in the next few days," Alexander's agent said. "It will be about the running back situation there."

Now that the Seahawks have signed Julius Jones, Shaun Alexander wants to know what?s going on. The four-time defending NFC West champions announced Monday they had signed Jones, the deposed starting running back in Dallas, to a multiyear contract, according to an Associated Press report. Terms were not released, but it is reportedly a four-year deal.

The Seahawks reached an agreement in principle Friday night with former Cowboys' running back Julius Jones, according to an ESPN.com report Jones agreed to a four-year deal worth around $3M a year. The contract is similar to the five-year, $14M contract reached with halfback T.J. Duckett earlier this week.

T.J. Duckett is heading to the Seahawks with a five-year contract, the free agent running back told The Associated Press on Tuesday night. Duckett, who played for the Lions last season, has 2,642 career yards rushing and 36 touchdowns. When he wasn?t slowed by injuries, Duckett was productive in limited opportunities. Last season, he carried the ball 65 times for 335 yards.
