(Renton, WA) -- Longtime Seahawks kicker Steven Hauschka [[ HOWSH-kuh ]] is getting some competition from former Vikings kicker Blair Walsh. Seattle has signed Walsh, who had become a free agent, with Hauschka set to become an unrestricted free agent in March. Walsh was released by the Vikings in November after he displayed some inconsistency, and Hauschka struggled a bit this past season with making key extra points and field goals. Hauschka has made more than 87-percent of his field goals, the third-best percentage in NFL history.
