Earlier this week we posed the question of how concerned should Seahawk fans be that GM John Schneider and head coach Pete Carroll had yet to sign contract extensions with the team. Both were entering the final year of their deals heading into 2016.
Today, one half of that duo has been rewarded with a new contract.
And rewarded handsomely.
ESPN 710’s John Clayton was the first to report that the team and Schneider have agreed to a new contract, and that was later confirmed by team owner Paul Allen.
According to Clayton, the deal is expected to be in the neighborhood of Baltimore GM Ozzie Newsome’s $3.
