Dominick Wood-Anderson joins former Vols with Seahawks.

SEATTLE – Former Tennessee tight end Dominick Wood-Anderson did not hear his name called in the 2020 NFL Draft, but will get a shot at an NFL career after signing with the Seattle Seahawks, joining two former Volunteers.

Wood-Anderson will join former Tennessee defensive end Darrell Taylor and lineman Khalil McKenzie in Seattle.

Taylor was teammates with Wood-Anderson in 2018 and 2019. Wood-Anderson signed with the Vols as a JUCO prospect.

Taylor was selected by the Seahawks with the 48th overall pick in the 2020 draft.

McKenzie played defensive line at Tennessee from 2015-17, and was converted to offensive line after being drafted by the Kansas City Chiefs in the sixth round of the 2018 NFL Draft. After spending time on the practice squad, McKenzie briefly played in the XFL for the Los Angeles Wildcats before re-signing with the Seahawks on April 20.

Wood-Anderson caught 38 passes for 408 yards and three touchdowns in two seasons at Tennessee, and was often deployed as a blocker. He joins a Seattle depth chart that includes Greg Olsen and Will Dissly at tight end.
