RENTON Jarran Reed Color Rush Jersey , Wash. (AP) — The Seattle Seahawks are expected to sign linebacker Mychal Kendricks to a one-year contract despite his recent guilty plea on insider trading charges.Two people with knowledge of the deal told The Associated Press on Thursday that Kendricks’ agreement is expected to be finalized in time for him to join the Seahawks for their Week 2 Game at Chicago. They spoke to the AP on the condition of anonymity because the team had not announced the signing.ESPN first reported Kendricks’ deal with the Seahawks.Kendricks signed a one-year contract with the Cleveland Browns in June after winning a Super Bowl title last season with the Philadelphia Eagles. Kendricks pleaded guilty last week to insider trading charges in Philadelphia. His sentencing is expected in January.The Browns released him Aug. 29, after the charges were filed. While Seattle is signing Kendricks to bolster its depth at linebacker, it’s unclear how long he might play for the Seahawks because the NFL has yet to impose any discipline.NFL spokesman Brian McCarthy said the situation is under review and Kendricks is currently allowed to sign and participate in activities, including games.Seattle’s reasoning is the need for depth. Seattle played the opener without starting linebacker K.J. Wright due to minor knee surgery in late August, and All-Pro linebacker Bobby Wagner was an unexpected addition to the Seahawks injury report on Thursday with a groin injury.The 5-foot-11 Nick Vannett Color Rush Jersey , 240-pounder recorded a team-high eight tackles in last season’s NFC Championship against Minnesota and had four in Philadelphia’s Super Bowl win. Kendricks signed with Cleveland in the offseason and the Browns said they made the decision to release him after learning more about his involvement.Federal prosecutors said Kendricks used tips from an acquaintance to make about $1.2 million in illegal profits on four major trading deals.Prosecutors say his co-defendant, Damilare Sonoiki, was paid $10,000 in kickbacks in the scheme from 2014-2015, as well as perks like tickets to Eagles games and tagging along to a music video shoot or nightclub appearances.Sonoiki had been working as a junior analyst at Goldman Sachs but left the financial field and has most recently been writing for TV shows. An IMDB profile lists him as a former writer on the popular TV series “Black-ish” as well as other movies and TV shows.In a statement released by his lawyer the day he was charged Justin Britt Color Rush Jersey , Kendricks said he was sorry and takes full responsibility for his actions.“While I didn’t fully understand all of the details of the illegal trades, I knew it was wrong, and I wholeheartedly regret my actions,” he said in the statement.Kendricks also claimed he didn’t take any of the profits for himself but didn’t elaborate on where the money went.“I am committed to repaying all of the funds gained illegally and accept the consequences of my actions.” The Seahawks and Chiefs agreed to the trade sending defensive end Frank Clark to Kansas City on Tuesday, but the paperwork associated with Clark’s new deal and the need for him to pass a physical left an official announcement off the table until Thursday.The Chiefs made that announcement a few hours ahead of the start of the first round of the draft. That round will open with the Seahawks in possession of two picks as they acquired the No. 29 pick from Kansas City along with a 2020 second-round selection. The two teams also swapped third-round picks in this year’s draft.After agreeing to the trade Nazair Jones Color Rush Jersey , the Chiefs agreed to a new five-year deal with Clark.“We’re happy to add Frank to our team,” Chiefs head coach Andy Reid said in a statement. “Competing against him and watching his film, you can see how physical and impressive he is in both the run and the pass game. He’s young and has consistently played at a high level since he entered the league. Congrats to Brett and his team, as well as Frank’s representatives on getting this deal done.”The Chiefs’ top pick is now No. 61 overall. They also have the No. 63 pick while the Seahawks are set to pick 21st in the first round in addition to the pick they acquired from Kansas City.
