The Seahawks acquired star defensive tackle Sheldon Richardson on Friday and rumors immediately surfaced that they were shopping Rubin on the trade market. The landing spot most-speculated was the Denver Broncos, which could be where Rubin ends up by Monday.

Rubin signed a one-year deal in 2015 after he had spent seven years with the Cleveland Browns.
