RENTON, Wash. (AP) — Terrell Owens is coming back to the NFL after one year on the sidelines. Owens had a tryout with the Seattle Seahawks yesterday, and hours later the team announced it had agreed to terms with the 38-year-old receiver.

SEATTLE (AP) — Steve Sarkisian’s fourth year is beginning at Washington after an offseason where the Huskies underwent a complete makeover of the defensive coaching staff.

Freshman Marcus Mariota and sophomore Bryan Bennett have 22 practices over the next three weeks to win the starting job for the Ducks’ season opener against Arkansas State on Sept. 1. One will replace Darron Thomas, who was 23-3 as a starter.
