Bryce Brown to Seahawks: Latest Contract Details, Comments and Reaction

The Seattle Seahawks have re-signed running back Bryce Brown.

Pete Carroll confirmed the signing when speaking with the media on Monday, per Curtis Crabtree of ProFootballTalk.com.

The move comes in the wake of running back Thomas Rawls being lost for the season after breaking his ankle and tearing ligaments on Sunday, per Sheil Kapadia of ESPN.

Rawls was starting in place of Marshawn Lynch, who has missed several weeks due to a sports hernia and doesn't yet have a timetable for his return to action.

DuJuan Harris rushed 18 times for 42 yards in relief of Rawls.

Brown, 24, last appeared in an NFL game for the Buffalo Bills in 2014. For his career, he's rushed for 1,004 yards and six touchdowns.

He showed potential in his rookie season with the Philadelphia Eagles, rushing for 564 yards and four touchdowns, though fumbling issues have plagued him, and he's had a hard time holding down a roster spot this season as he was cut by both the Bills and Seahawks.

Harris will likely remain the team's starter until Lynch returns, while veteran Fred Jackson is likely to see time on third downs and passing situations.

Brown's signing is likely for depth, though he could find himself rotated into the game in a platoon situation if Harris or Jackson struggle.
