The Seahawks could also use help at defensive tackle and wide receiver, regardless of whether DK Metcalf is traded.

"Sources: LB Ernest Jones IV and the Seahawks agreed to terms on a 3-year contract extension worth $33M with $15M guaranteed, keeping him with Seattle," NFL Network reporter Ian Rapoport tweeted. "Jones, who was traded twice in the past year, has found a home in a deal done by @agentturner1 & @agentbutler1 of @Agency1AMG."

Barnes said there was a feeling of unfinished business in Detroit, and he couldn’t ignore the desire to continue building the foundation he helped set. The linebacker is the fourth player from Brad Holmes and Dan Campbell’s first draft class to land an extension -- another aspect that pulled him back.
