Cornerback Artie Burns and the Seattle Seahawks have agreed to a deal. He will be signing a one-year, $2 million contract, moving from Chicago to Seattle.
ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported the news via Twitter on Wednesday morning
Burns was originally a first round selection by the Steelers, where he played for four seasons before signing with the Bears in 2020. He did not play in 2020 after suffering an ACL tear in August of that year. After two seasons in Chicago, he will be moving to the Seahawks on just a one-year contract.
Last season, Burns played in 11 games, starting in six of them. He defended six passes and collected 23 combined tackles. He did not collect an interception. In fact, he has not had an interception in a game since 2017.
