The #Seahawks announced a 4-year contract extension for emerging LB KJ Wright. I’m told it’s for $27M. Keeps him off the market.

Love the way this FO works. Always doing something. Locking up key pieces quietly in the middle of the season instead of waiting to do all of it in the off season

Why?

If this costs us Bobby I'll be pissed.

Trying to keep together what could be a historically good defense?

I'm surprised but I guess I shouldn't be. Pete's only spoke highly of Wright.

The salary cap is going up quite a bit. We have plenty of money for Wagner and Wilson.

I rather doubt that will happen. JS isn't that kind of dummy.

He has played better but man, when I was at the San Diego game using my binoculars trained on him, he was an extreme goat.

Wow!! That seems high.

Originally I was thinking that Wagner might get a deal this offseason, but this makes me wonder if they will wait until next year now?

Congrats KJ. Now we just have to lock up Russell and Bobby when the time comes.
