Was it meaningful that there was suddenly a report on the NFL's official network Friday night that more than the Dallas Cowboys may be interested in Thomas?
As the Seahawks cut their roster from 90 players to 53 by 1 p.m. Saturday, one player they don’t have to do anything about is holdout free safety Earl Thomas.
Thomas remains on a reserve/did not report list and does not count against roster limits, and he can stay there until he shows up.
The Seahawks appear totally fine with that idea of knowing that Thomas has to report by at least the 10th week, but maybe a little earlier, if he wants to avoid having his contract toll, meaning he’d still be under contract to Seattle in 2019.
