Brown has agreed to terms on a one-year contract with the Seahawks, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

Brown was absent for Wednesday's session, but his return to he field a day later bodes well for his Week 9 status, though the tight end may need to practice fully by Friday to avoid heading into Sunday's game against the Commanders minus an injury designation. The 29-year-old played ahead of Mike Gesicki last week against the Dolphins and caught both of his targets for 33 scoreless yards. On the year, Brown has been a big-play machine with seven grabs for 170 yards (24.3 yards per catch) and one touchdown on seven targets.
Brown, who now has four catches for 84 yards over his last two outings, actually out-snapped Mike Gesicki (15 snaps, two catches) Sunday, but with Hunter Henry (31 snaps, three catches) also in the mix, he's involved in a TE-time share that limits his weekly fantasy ceiling.
Brown, who was out-snapped in Week 7 by fellow TEs Hunter Henry (30 snaps, two catches) and Mike Gesicki (30 snaps, two catches), now has five catches for 137 yards and a TD in seven games to date. As New England's third option at his position, Brown is off the fantasy radar as long as both Henry and Gesicki are on hand.
