Pete Carroll says Seattle Seahawks, K.J. Wright have discussed return

RENTON, Wash. -- After spending last season with the Las Vegas Raiders, free-agent linebacker K.J. Wright wants to return to the Seattle Seahawks.

"I want to go back home," Wright told Trey Wingo on the Half-Forgotten History podcast last week. "I think it's that simple. Seattle knows that I want to come back. They know how much they mean to me."

Seahawks coach Pete Carroll was asked about Wright's comments on Sunday, after the team concluded its three-day rookie minicamp. His response didn't give the impression that a reunion is likely, as the Seahawks appear set to go with recent draft picks Jordyn Brooks (2020 first-rounder) and Cody Barton (2019 third-rounder) as their starting inside linebackers.
