The Seahawks no longer have to worry about finding the money to extend Frank Clark. He was traded. And Seattle already signed an extension with quarterback Russell Wilson for something like $3 billion. But in 2020, Seattle may have to choose between extending Jarran Reed or Bobby Wagner.
Both Wagner and Reed will be free agents after next season. And both players are extremely valuable to Seattle’s current and future success. After losing Clark, Seattle needs to now hold on to home-grown talents which Reed and Wagner are.
