Seahawks sign CB Terrion Arnold

Key Points:

• Former No. 24 overall pick Arnold, recently released by the Lions, is facing felony kidnapping and armed robbery charges related to a February 2026 incident in Tampa Bay, complicating his efforts to sign with a new NFL team.
• Arnold has met with the Seahawks and Texans, and the Jets have also shown interest, but no contract deal appears imminent until his legal issues are resolved.
• A Florida judge recently ruled that Arnold can visit NFL teams while awaiting trial, allowing him to continue exploring opportunities despite his serious charges.
• Arnold’s attorney has stated that multiple teams have expressed interest, but the likelihood of him signing before his legal case concludes remains low, especially with potential court travel restrictions and possible NFL disciplinary actions.
• Arnold was waived by the Lions on June 29th, went unclaimed on waivers, and has career stats including 24 games played, 91 tackles, 18 pass breakups, and one interception.
