Seahawks Intend To Re-Sign D.J. Reed
3 years agoThe Seattle Seahawks want to re-sign cornerback D.J. Reed, who was the only sure thing in Seattle's secondary in 2021. Reed made $920,000 in the final year of his deal last season, and it will likely cost the Seahawks at least $4 million per year to keep Reed around. If they don't think they can reach a long-term deal with him, the franchise tag is an option up until March 8. However, Seattle has used the tag just twice in the Pete Carroll-John Schneider era of 12 years. "I definitely want to stay here," the 25-year-old Reed said, "but the price has to be right." In 14 games last year, Reed had a career-high 78 tackles (62 solo), two interceptions, 10 passes defensed and one fumble recovery. The Seahawks have also made it a priority to re-sign safety Quandre Diggs.
