Seahawks free agency Day 1: Three free agents depart, Earl Thomas plays the waiting game

On Day 1 of the NFL’s free agent “legal tampering period,” the Seahawks saw one of their former defensive backs reset the market at his position — though maybe not the one you were expecting — and saw one of their former running backs get a new contract paying him three times what any of the running backs the team has left on its roster will make in 2019.

As for the Seahawks themselves, they didn’t officially do anything, sticking to their habit of laying in the weeds as the big money gets spent early in free agency, waiting to pounce later.
