RENTON, Wash. (AP) -Free-agent guard Chester Pitts has agreed to a contract with the Seattle Seahawks on the eve of training camp.
The team announced the deal on Thursday for the starter with the Houston Texans from 2002 until last season.
Seahawks veterans are due to report to camp Friday. The first practice is Saturday.
Pitts started 114 games for Houston, first as a left tackle and then in 2006 as a left guard. The Texans’ second-round pick in 2002 rejoins former Houston line coach Alex Gibbs in Seattle.
Pitts will get a chance to start on a revamped Seahawks line. Seattle traded starting guard Rob Sims to Detroit in the offseason for defensive end Robert Henderson and a draft choice.
The Seahawks also released Henderson and linebacker Anthony Heygood on Thursday.
