Mike Garafolo reports that although Seahawks LT Duane Brown did not hold out from minicamp, he is seeking a new contract.
Brown is entering the final year of his deal and is set to make a base salary of $10 million in 2021.
He’s been a stalwart at left tackle for the Seahawks since arriving via trade and Seattle would obviously be hesitant to create any problems along the offensive line and damage things with QB Russell Wilson.
However, Brown will be 36 before the start of the season, which could make finding a value for a long-term deal tricky for the two sides.
Brown, 35, is a former first-round pick of the Texans back in 2008. He was later traded to the Seahawks in 2017 before signing a three-year, $36.5 million extension with Seattle.
Brown is set to make a base salary of $10 million in 2021.
In 2020, Brown started all 16 games for the Seahawks at left tackle. Pro Football Focus had him rated as the No. 5 offensive tackle out of 79 qualifying players.
We’ll have more on Brown as the news is available.
