The 31-year-old free agent safety last played in the NFL for the Cincinnati Bengals in 2016 and starred at USC under current Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll.
Mays was originally a second-round pick by the San Francisco 49ers in 2010 – the same draft in which the Seahawks selected free safety Earl Thomas and strong safety Kam Chancellor.
The No. 1 overall prospect in the state of Washington in 2006, Mays chose the Trojans over an offer from the University of Washington – where his father Stafford played in the late 1970s.
Mays has also played for the Minnesota Vikings, Detroit Lions, Oakland Raiders and the Saskatchewan Roughriders in his professional career.
