At this point in their respective careers, I trust Penny to stay healthy more than I do Carson. Good signing, happy with the contract, would have liked one more option year.
Thanks for that Roger! So we would have been a bit better off had we exercised it. But who could of guessed? I don't think there were many proponents of picking it up.
Glad it's done. Stay healthy my son. We still need a 3rd dynamic back to be the best running team in football. It's not hard to miss 4 games which would only leave one stud. I suggest draft for sure, but also sign Mac or someone like him. Look at what Mixon did for the Bengals because I think he played ever game.
I might have wanted to give him a lower base and more upside money if he stays healthy. But that is just my opinion. I don't believe he can stay healthy. And like zezinhom400 below, I like the 1 year deal. Also, please bring AP back, if possible, as a RB coach.
Luckily at any price, the Seahawks pretty much would look exactly the same, his signing shouldn't prevent anyone else from being on the team. I would have actually preferred a second year in case he does rush for 1,500.
It's the right move. He said Adrian Peterson taught him a bunch. Peterson arrived and Penny started running to his potential. Bring Peterson back as an entry level coach. Keep things running along.
You said one comment but there’s something else I like — the one year deal. If he gets hurt again or those end of season numbers were fools gold, they’re off the hook. And if he plays himself into a big contract they have the cap space next year for that. AS LONG AS THEY DONT SHOOT THEIR WAD ON A BAKER MAYFIELD OR WHATEVER AT QB

I agree Chuck
Left me wondering what Penny's salary would have been had we exercised his 5th year option.
$4.52M

That is a very good point.

Great move, great signing, great contract.

Great signing and great he turned down more money elsewhere bc means the team doesn’t think it’s a tank year
