Jones confirmed, Hass released
By Liz Mathews
The Seahawks have confirmed the signing of wide receiver Brandon Jones, which was reported to have occurred yesterday.
To make room for Jones on the roster, the team has released WR Mike Hass. Hass had recently re-signed with the team on August 8th after being cut earlier in the offseason. Hass played one game for the Seahawks in the 2009 season.
Originally selected by the Tennessee Titans in the third-round (96th overall) of the 2005 NFL Draft, Jones spent four seasons with the team before signing a five-year, $16.5 million contract with the 49ers last year.
Over his career, Jones has played in 59 games with 27 starts, recording 113 receptions for 1,398 yards and nine touchdowns. He had a career-high 41 catches in 2008 and career-high four touchdowns in 2006.
As of now, the Seahawks have nine wide receivers on the roster.
