The Seahawks worked out veteran defensive tackle David Parry on Monday, a source tells NFL.com’s Ian Rapoport (on Twitter). Parry became available when the Vikings cut him to make room for Tom Johnson, who was made available after being released by the Seahawks.
If the Seahawks sign Parry, it will effectively complete a one-for-one swap of defensive tackles between Seattle and Minnesota. It’s a “trade” that the Seahawks did not want to make. The Seahawks cut Johnson before their Week 2 contest in order to sign a reserve safety for depth, but hoped to re-sign Johnson after the game was over. The Vikings foiled their plans, however, and quickly scooped him up.
Parry appeared in each of the Vikings’ first two games and recorded a sack in their tie against the Packers in Week 2.
