K.J. Wright: Seahawks moves show ‘it’s a ruthless business’

Seahawks linebacker K.J. Wright, who is now the fourth-longest tenured player on the team’s roster, said in an interview on Late Hits on SiriusXM that the moves last week to release Richard Sherman and trade defensive lineman Michael Bennett have made this “one of the more tough offseasons to deal with.”

The comments were among the first of any Seahawk since the team began a makeover last week that has seen six players released, traded or signed elsewhere (though cornerback DeShawn Shead could still return).

“Every year it’s not fun when guys leave,” Wright was quoted as saying.
