Chris Carson has signed a new contract with the Seattle Seahawks. Various US media reports unanimously.
Accordingly, the franchise agreed with their running back on a three-year contract for $ 24.6 million. However, the third year of the contract will be automatically canceled due to cap reasons. So, in reality, the deal is equivalent to a two-year, $ 14.6 million contract.
Carson only had 681 rushing yards and five rushing touchdowns last year, and he missed four games in the regular season due to injury.
Head coach Pete Carroll had announced in the offseason that he wanted to put more on the running game again in 2021. Carson is likely to play a bigger role in the offense again. In 2018 and 2019, the former seven-round pick had more than 1,000 rushing yards each.
NFL: Anthony Harris joins the Philadelphia Eagles
Anthony Harris, meanwhile, signed a one-year contract with the Philadelphia Eagles. This should bring the safety five million dollars.
Harris’ market was surprisingly small. In the eyes of many observers, the 29-year-old was one of the top safeties on the market. In the previous year, the Minnesota Vikings Harris had kept the franchise day.
For the Vikings, Harris started in a total of 30 games in the past two seasons. He came up with six interceptions and 164 tackles.
