Former Washington LB Cam Bright signs UDFA deal with Seattle Seahawks
The Seattle Seahawks have signed an undrafted free agent deal with former Washington linebacker Cam Bright, according to NFL insider Aaron Wilson.
Bright played the first four college football seasons at Pitt before transferring to Washington for his senior season. He compiled 237 career tackles during that time along with 12 sacks.
Entering his lone season at Washington, Bright was named a team captain by his peers and coaches. He started all 13 games for the Huskies in 2022, where he finished the year third on the team with 60 total tackles.
He is a former three-star recruit out of the 2017 class, according to the On3 Industry Rankings, a proprietary algorithm that compiles ratings and rankings from all four primary recruiting media services. He was the No. 1,225 overall player and No. 137 linebacker in his class.
Bright isn’t the only former Husky that is NFL bound after this year’s draft. OL Jaxson Kirkland has signed a deal as an undrafted rookie free agent to join the Cincinnati Bengals, according to On3’s Matt Zenitz. Kirkland played tackle at Washington but projects to move inside at the next level and was named to the Pro Football Focus College Football Third-Team All-American squad in 2022.
No Huskies were actually drafted.
