Seahawks Trade Cornerback Michael Jackson to Panthers for Rookie Linebacker Michael Barrett

The exchange addresses depth concerns for both teams as they prepare for the upcoming NFL season.

Michael Jackson started all 17 games for the Seahawks in 2022 but fell down the depth chart last season.
Rookie Michael Barrett, a seventh-round pick, played under Seahawks' coach Mike Macdonald at Michigan.
The Panthers needed cornerback depth due to injuries to Dane Jackson and Lamar Jackson.
Barrett could provide needed linebacker depth for the Seahawks, who are dealing with injuries at the position.
Both players bring experience and potential to their new teams, aiming to make an impact.
