A reunion between the Seattle Seahawks and linebacker Bobby Wagner could be in the cards.

The Seahawks are "keenly" interested in bringing back the veteran linebacker, who's reportedly set to be released by the Los Angeles Rams, sources told The News Tribune's Gregg Bell.

The Rams are planning to cut Wagner on March 15, the first day of the new league year. They've given the 32-year-old permission to talk to suitors ahead of his release, Bell adds.

A second-round pick in 2012, Wagner spent the first 10 seasons of his career in Seattle before being cut last offseason. He signed a five-year, $50-million deal with L.A. shortly after.

Wagner made eight Pro Bowls and earned six All-Pro nods while with the Seahawks. He's the franchise's all-time leader in tackles with 1,383.

The Seahawks relied on Jordyn Brooks and Cody Barton at linebacker last season. Brooks tallied 161 tackles while Barton added 136 tackles of his own.
