K’Von Wallace will sign a one-year contract with the Seahawks, according to a Tuesday report by NFL Network insider Tom Pelissero.
The 26-year-old Wallace has been in the NFL for four seasons, entering the league in 2020 as a fourth-round NFL Draft pick by the Philadelphia Eagles out of Clemson.
Wallace appeared in 45 games over three seasons with the Eagles and made at least one start in each of those years.
After being released by Philly, Wallace moved on to the Arizona Cardinals in 2023, where he started five of the seven games he played for the Seahawks’ NFC West rivals. He was a waiver claim around midseason by Tennessee, and he played 10 games and started seven for the Titans.
The 5-foot-11, 205-pound Wallace had his most notable season on the stat sheet last year. He broke up six passes, made 89 combined tackles including one tackle for loss, and had both his first career interception (with Arizona) and QB hit (with Tennessee).

The Seahawks’ safety position has seen some significant turnover this offseason, with Pro Bowlers Jamal Adams and Quandre Diggs both released before free agency began. Seattle made one previous addition last week at the spot by signing Rayshawn Jenkins.
