Linebacker K.J. Wright made waves recently when he appeared on The Jim Rome Show and said that he will not take a discount to re-sign with the Seattle Seahawks in free agency. Wright stated that he and other players must be compensated for their positive contributions.
Wright then took to the airwaves on SiriusXM NFL Radio and said that he is seeking “a multi-year” contract, but that negotiations have been “nonexistent” thus far.
Seattle will have to create cap space to keep some of its key players, including Wright. The veteran linebacker was correct when he said that he has contributed significantly to the Seahawks defense over the years.
Although he is now 31 years old, Wright holds an adamant belief that his play did not decline last season.
If you can show me 3 plays from last season where I “slowed down” I’ll give you two tickets to a game next year https://t.co/dPovbpSwZ7

The Seahawks will have a lot of decisions to make this offseason. We will see how this particular situation plays out in March.
