The Seahawks have only tagged players twice under John Schneider.
Tuesday was the deadline for teams to place franchise tags on impending free agents, and as expected, the Seattle Seahawks decided not to play any game of tag. Only seven players received tags on Tuesday, one of whom had the rare transition tag. Kansas City Chiefs cornerback L’Jarius Sneed and Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins were tagged earlier in the offseason, although it’s likely that Sneed will be traded by the Super Bowl champions.
From Seattle’s standpoint, the only players who would’ve theoretically had even a slim chance of getting tagged were linebacker Jordyn Brooks and defensive lineman Leonard Williams. Tagging Brooks would’ve meant a jump to $24 million on a non-exclusive franchise tag, and Williams would’ve been north of $35 million because he’s been tagged twice before. Perhaps Noah Fant could’ve had a shot at $12.7 million, but I doubt Seattle ever made any considerations.
