Fred Jackson, running back
Jackson, who was a cherished leader and team captain for the Buffalo Bills, was cut after eight years with the team. However, the veteran didn’t stay unemployed for more than a few days.
The Seattle Seahawks reached out to Jackson and he was signed to a one-year deal with the team on Friday. He will now join his former Bills teammate, running back Marshawn Lynch, and should make an immediate impact in the Seahawks’ offense as the team’s No. 2 back.
Jackson will get the last laugh should the Seahawks make it to a third consecutive Super Bowl appearance next February.
