The Seahawks have signed 31-year old running back Adrian Peterson.  Peterson played in 14 games (0 starts) for the Bears last season and he carried the ball 7 times for 51 yards (7.3 ypc).  He also caught 2 passes for 11 yards (5.5 avg) last season.  Peterson has now played in 106 games (6 starts) in his 8 years in the NFL and he has carried the ball 311 times for 1,283 yards (4.1 ypc) with 8 TD runs.  He has also caught 78 passes for 665 yards (8.5 avg) in his NFL career.  This was a good signing for the Seahawks as Peterson has been a decent backup running back in his career.

UPDATE:  (8/17/2010) – The Seahawks have released Peterson.  Wow, that was quick.
