Overview
- Shaheed told NFL Network he would “absolutely” like to return to Seattle and wants to “run it back” after the Super Bowl LX win.
- Set to become an unrestricted free agent in mid-March, he said contract conversations will heat up closer to the market opening.
- Seattle has significant cap room — roughly $62 million per OverTheCap — but must juggle decisions on Kenneth Walker III and key defensive backs Coby Bryant, Josh Jobe and Riq Woolen.
- League observers expect multiple suitors if he reaches free agency, with Spotrac projecting a deal near $14.1 million per year.
- After a midseason trade from the Saints, Shaheed saw fewer offensive targets in Seattle but delivered three return touchdowns, including a divisional-round kickoff score, showcasing dual-threat value.
