Seahawks extend Derick Hall

Hall's contract numbers show that sometimes it's better to act now than wait

The Seattle Seahawks extended Derick Hall on Tuesday morning, a three-year, $42 million contract with $21 million guaranteed. Numbers like that for a pass rusher indicate that Hall could not risk betting on himself to see if he could become a more valuable player as a free agent in 2027, and neither could the Seahawks.
