The tackle’s productivity playing 60% of snaps last year is only part of his value to Seattle’s defense and team.

Seattle Seahawks defensive tackle Jarran Reed is returning to the team on a three-year deal worth up to $25 million, sources told ESPN.

Jarran Reed will not be hitting free agency. On Sunday, Reed re-signed with the Seattle Seahawks several days before he was due to hit the open market. The 32-year-old defensive tackle is inking a three-year, $25 million deal to stay in Seattle, according to ESPN NFL insider Adam Schefter.
