Despite Pete Carroll’s wishful thinking, it looks like Earl Thomas probably won’t show up for minicamp in June.
Thomas has told Bradley McDougald he’ll be back — but only “when they get things worked out.”
“He’s let me know that he’ll be back when the time is right and when they get things worked out,” McDougald told John Clayton on 710 ESPN. “That’s his personal business when it comes to his contract and things, but he’s reassured me a couple times that he’ll be back.”
Yeah, but when? It doesn’t look like anything is getting worked out.
Are we entering the final four years of the Pete Carroll/Russell Wilson era? Or just the next four?
A few days ago, when talking about his goal to revive Seattle’s running game this year, Pete Carroll made a reference to another legendary Seahawk coach when he said, “It isn’t like three yards and a cloud of dust. It ain’t Ground Chuck.”
In the last two weeks, the Seahawks’ special teams have undergone a major upgrade — and they might get better yet.
Pete Carroll and John Schneider made the radio rounds last week, with both talking to 710 ESPN and Schneider doing a stint with KJR.
Matt Ryan just became the NFL’s first $30 million player, and the handwringing is already beginning about Russell Wilson’s next contract.
This day was destined to come, but it doesn’t make it any less sad to see a stellar player’s career end (at least in Seattle) due to injury.
The Seahawks got Rasheem Green because four teams fell in love with other defenders in the first round, but should Seattle have gotten more out of moving down?
