  "account": "The Seattle Seahawks are investigating cornerback Terrion Arnold despite felony charges and a potential life sentence. Coach Mike Macdonald confirmed Arnold's second visit and tryout on Sunday. Arnold is facing eight felony charges that carry a sentence of up to life in prison, including an armed robbery and kidnapping case in Florida. The Seattle coach and General Manager John Schneider are \"chasing edges\" and \"being in on everything\" to secure Arnold. Arnold, 23, reportedly visited other teams, including the New Orleans Saints, Houston Texans, and New York Jets. Seattle's interest in Arnold shows they are not satisfied with their cornerback depth and want the best possible players.",
