Nwosu being reported as a restructure, 2025 cap drop from ~$20m to $11m.

Took 2025 $7m pay cut and team adding guarenteed $7m with a dead cap of $8m in 2026. Somehow this freed up ~$9m for 2025.

Good move.

If he comes back anywhere near the guy he was when he came we did great
Probably let him check FA and looks like he stays a seahawk

...I forgot that dude was on the team.

When I saw Kupp got Nwosu's number I worried he was a goner. Very happy to see one of our defensive stars is still good to go.

Finally, after 45 years someone good enough to wear #10.

I called this one. Last one to do is Noah Fant if they need room for draft picks, practice squad and more free agents

SoulfishHawk · Mar 20, 2025

I think most of us called this one. Way too obvious of a decision. IF he can stay healthy. Lawrence/Big Cat/Murphy/Nwusu/Mafe/Reed etc. This D line has some damn good depth.

I'll say what everyone else is gonna' say, now can we get some depth on the OTHER side of the line? Go Hawks

Better than being a cap casualty. We know he's got it in him if he can just stay healthy.

SoulfishHawk · Mar 20, 2025

Yep. One of those injuries was a total cheap shot in the pre-season. I stick to my opinion on that. Dude went right for his knee.

Not budging on that.

Other than that, has he been known to be injury prone? Things happen in the NFL I realize, but that is not his fault. Any other issues? I don't recall personally.

He came from the chargers - a notoriously broke-dick team where the IR list is overflowing most seasons - BUT - I don't recall him being one of those poor souls. His injuries seem to be homegrown in Seattle.

If he can come back healthy he is a force.

SoulfishHawk · Mar 20, 2025

Just like Jones bringing a new energy to that defense, I think Lawrence will do the same thing with that D Line.

Hence the restructuring.

Some of the comments here are odd to me "If he can stay healthy"

Dude has only been injured 3 times in his career lol. One of those was a cheap shot.

I understand the perspective...it's more about the sentiment of a player sidelined with injuries for the better part of 2 years you expected to contribute at a high level.

I don't take it as he's soft or brittle as much as it'd be good to see him on the field doing what everyone saw year 1 and anticipated the past 2.

Yet another great deal by the front office and whoever does the cap stuff.

Nice to see. I hope he can again contribute like he did a couple of years ago. Real bummer that he lost all last season to that cheap shot injury.
