New Las Vegas Raiders head coach Klint Kubiak has landed his first Seattle Seahawks player of the offseason.
Wide receiver and special teams contributor Dareke Young has agreed to a contract with the Raiders, ending his four-year tenure in Seattle. Contract details have not yet been disclosed.
A seventh-round pick out of Lenoir-Rhyne, Young never really had much of a role in Seattle’s offense, catching four passes on
six targets over 42 games played. However, he did feature quite a bit on special teams, including as a kick returner in 2025. While Young averaged 32.2 yards per return, his marquee moment as a Seahawk was recovering Xavier Smith’s muffed punt in the NFC Championship win over the Los Angeles Rams.
With Young’s departure, the only unsigned Seahawks free agents are linebacker Chazz Surratt and wide receiver Cody White. Surratt entered the offseason as an unrestricted FA, whereas White was not tendered as a restricted FA. Young joins Coby Bryant, Boye Mafe, Kenneth Walker III, and Riq Woolen (all members of the 2022 draft class) as Seahawks who’ve left for another team.
