Chargers signed WRs Deon Butler and Dan DePalma, and DB Cornelius Brown. They're offseason depth. The 91st pick in the 2009 draft, Butler has the most notable name as a former Penn State Nittany Lion who ran 4.32 at the Combine. He only has 57 receptions for 611 yards (10.7 YPR) and four scores across three NFL seasons and was not tendered as a restricted free agent by Seattle.

Seahawks re-signed WR Deon Butler and waived CB Ron Parker. Parker made two special teams tackles in two appearances this season. Butler, 26, is a former third-round pick out of Penn State. He's depth at receiver.

Seahawks re-signed WR Deon Butler. Butler takes the place of Charly Martin, who was sent to injured reserve with a calf injury. Butler was at the team's facility for a workout on Friday. He was among Seattle's final cuts heading into the season. Butler had previously worked out for the Saints and Lions this year.

The Lions worked out free agent wide receivers Deon Butler, Brian Robiskie and Legedu Naanee on Tuesday. The Lions are in the market for wideout depth with Nate Burleson (leg) done for the year. Naanee is the best blocker in the group while Butler's speed gives him the most upside as a receiver. Butler has been on the street since the Seahawks cut him just before Week 1 this season.

The Saints are working out free agent WR Deon Butler.

Seahawks waived DB Phillip Adams, DE Pierre Allen, LB Allen Bradford, WR Deon Butler, WR Kris Durham, G Paul Fanaika, G Rishaw Johnson, WR Jermaine Kearse, LB Kyle Knox, WR Ricardo Lockette, TE Sean McGrath, DE Cordarro Law, C Kris O'Dowd, QB Josh Portis, DB DeShawn Shead, LB Korey Toomer, and WR Lavasier Tuinei. Butler was a third-round pick in 2009, but hasn't been the same since suffering a compound leg fracture in 2010. Bradford was unable to make the transition from tailback. Portis was a favorite of coach Pete Carroll, but the team will go with only two quarterbacks.

Seahawks WR Deon Butler "looks like he's back to his old self" after a 2010 compound leg fracture limited his impact throughout the 2011 season.

Deon Butler caught one pass for eight yards in Seattle's Week 14 win over the Rams. Active for just the second time since coming off the PUP list on November 8, the grab was Butler's first catch of the season. Under contract for only $565,000 in 2012, the former third-round pick should get a chance to earn a roster spot in camp.

Seahawks activated WR Deon Butler (compound leg fracture) from reserve/PUP. Butler has been practicing for three weeks, and Tuesday is the deadline to activate players from the PUP list. Now 11 months removed from his gruesome leg injury, Butler will be no higher than fifth or six on the depth chart the rest of the way.

Seahawks placed WR Deon Butler (compound leg fracture) on the reserve/PUP list. Butler may have been left off the Seahawks' final roster had he not landed on the PUP list. He'll be first eligible to return in Week 8 against the Bengals. He hauled in 36 catches for 385 yards and four touchdowns in 13 games a year ago.
