SOURCE: SEATTLE TO SIGN MYCHAL KENDRICKS

WASH.» The Seattle SeaRENTON, hawks are expected to sign linebacker Mychal Kendricks to a oneyear contract despite his recent guilty plea on insider trading charges.

Two people with knowledge of the deal told The Associated Press on Thursday that Kendricks’ agreement is expected to be finalized in time for him to join the Seahawks for Sunday’s game at Chicago.

ESPN first reported Kendricks’ deal with the Seahawks.

Kendricks signed a oneyear contract with the Cleveland Browns in June after winning a Super Bowl title last season with the Philadelphia Eagles. Kendricks pleaded guilty last week to insider trading charges in Philadelphia, but his sentencing is not expected to take place until January.

The Browns released him Aug. 29, after the charges were filed. While Seattle is signing Kendricks to bolster its depth at linebacker, it’s unclear how long he may be able to play for the Seahawks as the NFL has yet to impose any discipline.

NFL spokesman Brian McCarthy said the situation is under review and Kendricks is currently allowed to sign and participate in activities, including games.
