The Seattle Seahawks have re-signed cornerback Shaquill Griffin on a one-year deal valued at $3 million, potentially rising to $4 million based on performance incentives. Griffin, 29, a former Pro Bowl selection, returns to bolster a relatively inexperienced secondary, likely battling Josh Jobe for the No. 3 cornerback spot behind emerging talents Devon Witherspoon and Riq Woolen.

Following the recent draft, the Seahawks identified cornerback as their top priority but opted not to select one despite having 11 picks. General Manager John Schneider indicated that the decision was influenced by the draft board's layout rather than a lack of intent to address the position. Griffin's experience will be vital as the team seeks to enhance their defensive unit.
