This news was first broken by Jeremy Fowler of ESPN. Terms of Jean-Charles' new deal with the Seahawks are not immediately available. Jean-Charles, 27, is the third defensive back to depart New Orleans as a free agent this offseason, joining Paulson Adebo and Will Harris.

It's here: the NFL has opened its free agent negotiating window with the legal tampering period starting Monday, March 10, at Noon ET/11 a.m. CT. Deals can be agreed to but nothing can be signed and made official until the new league starts on Wednesday,

The Seahawks weren't through with delivering epic NFL free agency moves, this time adding a former Saints defender.

The New Orleans Saints made their biggest splash of free agency when they brought back edge rusher Chase Young on a three-year deal. Though the details of the contract haven't been revealed yet, the 25-year-old pass-rusher landed a deal worth up to $51 million.
