INDIANAPOLIS — Once the Seahawks contingent returns to Seattle after spending a week at the NFL combine meeting with agents and generally assessing the landscape heading into free agency, the team will begin making what coach Pete Carroll called "decisions that are difficult at this time of year."
The most difficult could be what to do with middle linebacker Bobby Wagner, who has a year remaining on his contract but no guaranteed money, meaning the Seahawks could save $16.6 million against the cap and in cash.
During their sessions with the media here Wednesday, neither Carroll nor general manager John Schneider committed to Wagner staying with the Seahawks in 2022 while saying they hope there's a way it happens.
