The Seattle Seahawks have signed Fred Jackson on a one-year deal.

Jackson was released this week by the Buffalo Bills and he now reunites Marshawn Lynch.

Pete Carroll was asked earlier this week what he liked about Jackson, who had scheduled a visit with the team.

"He's been a very good pass-catcher and [an] adept pass protector," Carroll said. "He's always been a good runner. He's got great feel and sense. Had a big run in the game last week (a preseason win against the Pittsburgh Steelers). Had a 40-yard run in the game last week (against the Steelers) and scored a touchdown. But he's been a very adept pass-receiver, and I think that's something that maybe he could fit in."
