Seattle Seahawks re-sign cornerback Artie Burns

The Seattle Seahawks have re-signed cornerback Artie Burns to a one-year deal, ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported Monday. It will mark Burns’ second season in Seattle after he appeared in three games for the team in 2022.

A former first-round pick out of Miami in 2016, Burns played the first four years of his career with the Pittsburgh Steelers. He started 38 of 72 games with the team over that span, recording 149 tackles, four interceptions, 27 passes defended and a forced fumble.

Burns then signed with the Chicago Bears ahead of the 2020 season, but sat out the entire year after tearing his ACL. He returned in 2021 to appear in 11 games with 23 tackles and six passes defended.

Artie Burns returns to a Seahawks team that features first-round pick Devon Witherspoon, Tariq Woolen and Mike Jackson, among others. Although he played a limited role in 2022, he’ll hope to do what he can to stand out and earn more reps this upcoming season.
