Seahawks' Michael Barrett: Traded to Seattle
The Seahawks acquired Barrett from the Panthers on Thursday in exchange for cornerback Michael Jackson, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.
The 2024 seventh-round pick out of Michigan has appeared in each of the Panthers' two preseason games so far, recording four total tackles. Barrett has a chance to earn a rotational defensive role now that he's in Seattle, as the Seahawks are heading into the 2024 season with a seemingly weak inside-linebacker corps.

Panthers' Michael Barrett: Carolina snatches in seventh round
The Panthers selected Barrett in the seventh round of the 2024 NFL Draft, 240th overall.
Barrett (5-foot-11, 232 pounds) was a two-year starter on a dominant Michigan defense, but he was more of a caretaker than a playmaker and rarely held any presence in the backfield (just 12.5 career tackles for loss in 35 starts).
