Released by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Tuesday, former Auburn standout Avery Young signed with the Seattle Seahawks on Monday after making good on a tryout.

Young attended the Seahawks' rookie minicamp, which was held Friday through Sunday. He made a strong enough impression that Seattle decided to sign him to a contract and put him on its offseason roster.

Young was among five players invited to Seattle's rookie minicamp who earned a contract after the Seahawks released five players to clear space on the roster, the team announced on Monday.

Seattle becomes Young's fourth NFL team.

After going undrafted, Young signed with the New Orleans Saints in 2016. He was placed on the non-football injury list when he arrived for training camp, and he spent the entire season on NFI. The designation meant Young didn't sustain the injury while an NFL player. Reports indicated Young's issue stemmed from a knee injury suffered at Auburn Pro Day.

New Orleans released Young on February 27, 2017, and he signed with the Miami Dolphins the next month. He again started training camp on NFI and ended up being released when Miami reduced its roster to the regular-season limit.

Young finished the 2017 season by spending two weeks on Tampa Bay's practice squad.
