Rashid Shaheed might not be coming back to the Seattle Seahawks, even though they see him as a top priority to resign. The speedy wide receiver and return specialists help them win Super Bowl 60 after mid-season trade, but talks for an extension are not close. Right now, the legal tapering period starts Monday, March 9th, when Shaheed can talk deals with other teams. Two days later, on Wednesday, March 11th, he becomes a full-free agent and could sign anywhere in the league. Fans and analysts credit Shaheed with big moments that fueled Seattle's playoff run. His special teams work stood out, including three return touchdowns that spark key wins, like a huge comeback against the Rams in Week 16. Seattle already has strong receivers like Jackson Smith and Jigba, Cooper Cup, and Tori Horton heading into his second year. So Shaheed's estimated market, value of about $14 million, $130,000 per year, feels steep.
