Seahawks tight end Jimmy Graham tweeted a note Friday thanking fans for their passion and support during his time with the Hawks.

Graham reportedly signed with the Green Bay Packers for a three-year, $30 million deal Wednesday, according to NFL Insider Ian Rapoport and ESPN.

After three years with the Seahawks, the free agent chose the Packers over the Saints, the team he played with before Seattle.

Read Graham’s full letter:

“I sit here today and reflect on my time with the Seahawks, I am humbled by the magnificent experience with this city, the 12s, my teammates, coaches, front office, equipment staff, owner and aviation community.

“Thank you 12s for embracing me into your households and supporting me these last 3 years with a passion and kindness reserved for family. It is a special time in my life that I will look back on with great sincerity.

“It’s been an amazing journey. There have been some amazing highs and some crushing lows. After the debilitating knee injury, when I didn’t know if I’d ever play again, the loyalty shown by everyone in this great organization and community to get me back was extraordinary. I cannot thank you enough. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

“The authenticity and trust received by my teammates has been a brotherhood unlike anything I could have imagined. It has been an honor to share the field with you all. LOB!
