The Seattle Seahawks need to add a high-impact edge rusher this offseason if they’re going to get back to the playoffs in 2022. While this free agent class is weak overall it is deep on the edge, making this position a potential priority for Pete Carroll and John Schneider to target next month.
One interesting idea is to re-sign former Seattle defensive end Jadeveon Clowney. Gil Brandt at NFL.com says Clowney could be a fit.
“Clowney is now in a much different place, career-wise, than he was after the 2019 season, when he spurned efforts by Seattle, which had acquired him via trade, to retain him in free agency. After a down 2020 in Tennessee, a rejuvenated Clowney piled up nine sacks for the Browns, which would have made him the single-season leader on a Seahawks team that finished tied for 22nd in sacks last season.”
