The Seahawks signed safety D'Anthony Bell on Monday, adding depth to their secondary as well as a playmaker on special teams.
Bell, who went undrafted out of West Florida in 2022, spent the past three seasons with the Cleveland Browns, appearing in 50 games with seven starts, and recorded 61 tackles, two interceptions, four passes defensed and a forced fumble.
Over three seasons, Bell piled up 1,001 teams snaps, including 85 percent of the Browns' special teams snaps last season. Bell made 28 tackles on special teams over the past three seasons, the most on the team over that span, and his 15 special teams tackles in 2024 ranked fourth in the league.
Bell, who is 6-foot-1, 211 pounds, should also have a chance to compete for playing time on defense in the third safety role in Mike Macdonald's defense, a position held last year by first by K'Von Wallace, who is currently a free agent, then later in the season by Rayshawn Jenkins, who was released earlier this month in a salary-cap related move.
