The Seattle Seahawks have signed Devin Hester to play on special teams in the wake of an injury to Tyler Lockett.

He averaged 7.2 yards per punt return on the season (17th in the NFL) and 24.5 yards per kickoff return before he was waived by the Baltimore Ravens in December.

Hester, 34, holds the NFL record with 20 return touchdowns: a record 14 on punts, five on kickoffs and one return of a missed field goal.
