"Seahawks Sign Former Cowboys DT Johnathan Hankins, Bolstering Defense"

Veteran defensive tackle Johnathan Hankins has signed with the Seattle Seahawks, ending his two-year run with the Dallas Cowboys. His departure leaves a gap in the Cowboys' defensive front, as his presence was crucial in halting running backs and generating pressure on quarterbacks. Hankins reunites with former Cowboys defensive line coach Aden Durde in Seattle. This move adds to the list of Cowboys free agents finding new homes this offseason, with the team retaining three free agents and signing one outside free agent.
