Less than two weeks after describing remaining Dallas as a “glorious” idea, Demarcus Lawrence is packing his bags.
The free agent defensive end is signing a three-year deal worth up to $42 million with the Seattle Seahawks, NFL Network Insiders Ian Rapoport, Tom Pelissero and Mike Garafolo reported on Wednesday. The deal includes $18 million guaranteed.
Lawrence had spent his entire pro career with the Cowboys after Dallas made him the 34th pick of the 2014 draft, but at 32 years old, it seemed as if Lawrence might finally consider another home away from the team that franchise tagged him twice in the past and handed him a five-year, $105 million deal back in 2019. At the beginning of March, Lawrence claimed the ball was in the Cowboys’ court, adding “I’m not only going to play in Dallas.”
