In these 9 video games, Dodson was main the Seahawks in tackles with 71 tackles, to go together with 2.0 sacks, 5 tackles for loss, one pressured fumble and a pair of passes defensed. Since this transfer was made after the commerce deadline, Dodson is now topic to waivers. Which means the 31 different NFL groups can declare Dodson off of waives, for under $1.1 million. Had this transfer been made previous to the deadline, Dodson would have been free to decide on his subsequent crew as he has greater than 4 accrued seasons within the NFL.
This offseason, the Seahawks signed each Dodson and Jerome Baker to be the beginning inside linebackers for the Mike Macdonald protection.
