Will Herring | Linebacker
6’3′ / 241
Herring, 31, takes the place of recently released special teams LB Ray-Ray Armstrong. Herring is a strict special teamer himself. He’ll bring a much needed veteran presence to a team that is taking too many penalties. Oct 7 – 10:53 PM

College career
At Auburn University, Herring earned letters in 2003, 2004, 2005, and 2006 while playing safety before moving to outside linebacker his senior season. He held the school career record with 49 consecutive starts, which was broken by Offensive Left Tackle Lee Ziemba in 2010. He also led the team in tackles his junior and senior seasons.
Professional career
Seattle Seahawks
He was drafted by the Seattle Seahawks in 2007. From 2007 through 2010, Herring played a pivotal role on special teams, and as a back-up outside linebacker for the Seahawks.
New Orleans Saints
After the 2010 season, Herring signed with the New Orleans Saints, to be not only a special teams threat like he was in Seattle, but to get more playing time at linebacker. He was cut by the Saints on March 12, 2013 and re-signed on March 21, 2013.
On March 13, 2014, he signed a one-year deal with the Dallas Cowboys. However, the deal was called off the next day.
