Per Bob Condotta, Seahawks HC Mike Macdonald said they are “working through that” when asked whether WR Tyler Lockett would return in 2025.
Seattle could save $17 million against the cap in 2025 by releasing Lockett. We have him named as a potential cap causality of the Seahawks this offseason.
Lockett, 32, is a former third-round pick of the Seahawks back in 2015. He was in the final year of his four-year, $3.318 million contract and set to make a base salary of $705,000 for the 2018 season when he signed a three-year extension with Seattle.
Lockett was entering the final year of that deal and set to make an $11 million base salary in 2021 when he agreed to a four-year, $69.2 million extension with the Seahawks. Seattle reworked his contract in 2024 to sign him for two years and $29.7 million.
In 2024, Lockett appeared in all 17 games for the Seahawks and caught 49 passes for 600 yards receiving and two touchdowns.
