The Seattle Seahawks made a bit call this off season by resigning wide receiver and return

specialist Rashid Shaheed instead of running back Kenneth.

Walker III.

They traded for Shaheed from the New Orleans Saints back in November, and now he's locked

in as part of their core for the next few years.

Walker ended up signing a huge deal to become the highest paid running back in the league

with the Kansas City Chiefs.

Meanwhile, Shaheed's new contract averages $17 million a year, which puts him behind

26 other wide receivers and pay, but adds.

Value across offense and special teams.

Richard Sherman, the former Seahawks star cornerback, praised the move on his podcast.

He expects Seattle to use Shaheed, more like they did in New Orleans, with at least two

deep shots per game to stretch defenses.

Sherman pointed out that at that price tag, Shaheed won't just be a returner, who contribute

big on offense too.

The positional value makes sense for the Seahawks, especially with his game changing special

team skills.

The team hopes this keeps their Super Bowl window open, aiming to repeat as champions after

coming close with the Legion of Boom era over a decade.
