The Seattle Seahawks have decided to bring back wide receiver Cody White on a one-year contract, a move announced on Wednesday that adds depth and experience to their roster.
White, now 27, started his NFL journey as an undrafted free agent out of Michigan State in 2020. Initially signing a three-year deal with the Kansas City Chiefs, his path took a turn when he was waived due to a non-football injury.
His career has seen him make brief stops with the New York Giants and Denver Broncos before finding a more stable home with the Pittsburgh Steelers in September 2020. There, he spent time bouncing between the active roster and the practice squad, honing his skills and staying ready for opportunities.
White's journey continued as he joined the Seahawks' practice squad in October 2023. Though he didn't see the field in the 2023 season, he became a more familiar face in 2024, remaining a part of Seattle's practice squad.
In 2025, White made his mark by appearing in 10 games, recording three receptions for 90 yards and scoring a touchdown. His performance showcased glimpses of his potential and versatility as a receiver.
Re-signing White is a strategic move for the Seahawks, aiming to capitalize on his familiarity with their system and his ability to step up when called upon. As he returns to Seattle, fans can look forward to seeing how White's journey continues to unfold on the field.
