The Seattle Seahawks signed free-agent tight end Ed Dickson on Friday.
Terms of the deal were not revealed by the Seahawks, but Dickson signed a three-year deal worth a maximum of $14 million, a source told NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.
Dickson, 30, started 12 of 16 games for the Carolina Panthers last season, catching 30 of 48 targets for 437 yards and one touchdown. He is graded as Pro Football Focus' No. 1 pass-blocking tight end.
He'll help to replace Jimmy Graham, who left the Seahawks for the Green Bay Packers in free agency.
