ESPN report: Falcons could be a trading partner with Seahawks for Michael Bennett

The Atlanta Falcons are among the teams interested in trading for Seattle’s Michael Bennett, according to a report Sunday night from ESPN.

It was revealed late last week that the Seahawks are engaging teams in trade talks for Bennett, who has made the Pro Bowl the last three seasons but will turn 33 next November and has battled some chronic nagging injuries the last two seasons, in particular.

In fact, it has been rumored for months that the Seahawks could consider just releasing Bennett. But instead of doing that and getting nothing the Seahawks are attempting to trade him first and get at least something in return, with Seattle likely hoping for some draft picks.
