The Seattle Seahawks are giving two familiar wide receivers another chance.

One is wide receiver Koren Robinson and the other is former Carolina Panther Keary Colbert.

Robinson, a Belmont native who has floundered his many opportunities in the NFL with bad decisions off the field, signed what is believed to be a one-year deal with the Seahawks as a free agent, according to the Seattle Times.

Robinson came into t he league with Seattle as a first-round draft pick in 2001 but was later released by coach Mike Holmgren after he ran out patience with Robinson.

His best season as a wide receiver came in 2002 when he caught 78 passes for 1,240 yards. However, his stock fell the next two seasons and he was suspended four games by the NFL in 2004 and released by the Seahawks that off-season after being arrested for DUI.

He made the Pro Bowl in 2005 with the Vikings as a returner and earned a nice contract that offseason.

However, the Vikings cut Robinson before he ever played a down under his new contract after he was arrested again during training camp for DWI and suspended by the NFL for a year.

He's not been in trouble since.

Robinson played with the Green Bay Packers last season and caught 21 passes.

Colbert, who had a brilliant rookie season with the Panthers but was never a factor after that, was acquired by the Seahawks in a trade with the Denver Broncos.

The Seahawks are desperate for help at receiver.

Bobby Engram, the top returning receiver from last season, is out with a broken shoulder and Deion Branch remains out following offseason knee surgery. Already, the Seahawks have lost Nate Burleson, Logan Payne and Ben Obomanu to season-ending injuries.
