Seahawks Let Bobo Go, Save $3M

0:00On March 3rd, the Seattle Seahawks chose not to tender wide receiver Jake Bobo as a restricted free agent. That decision saves him $3 million heading into next season. Bobo remains a fan favorite and teammate staple, but his offensive output and special team's role do not match that price tag. Bobo stands 6'4", with sure hands and sharp route running, he lacks top speed, yet excels as a possession receiver and red zone option. Teams needing those traits in three receiver sets, or run support, could target him. Fans and players love Bobo for his grit. He joined the Seahawks undrafted out of UCLA in 2023, thriving despite limited targets. The team hopes he returns on a cheaper deal, fitting well in new offensive coordinator Brian Flurry System. Free agency kicks off Wednesday, March 11th. Bobo joins other non-tendered Seahawks, like linebacker, Drake Thomas, fullback Brady Russell, wide receiver Derrickie Young, defensive tackle Brandon, Pilly, safety AJ Finley, and long snapper Christo.

1:05While Bobo might chase the best offer elsewhere, his Seattle Roots and Fan Appeal keep the door open for a reunion this off season.
