The Seattle Seahawks have reached an agreement with wide receiver Rashid Shaheed on a three-year, $51 million contract extension, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. The deal ensures the explosive playmaker remains in Seattle following a standout debut season with the franchise.
Shaheed was originally acquired by the Seahawks last year in a trade that sent a fourth-round and fifth-round draft pick to his former team. He became an immediate contributor during Seattle’s late-season push and played a pivotal role throughout the team's postseason run to the Super Bowl. By securing this extension, the Seahawks front office has locked down a key offensive weapon for the foreseeable future.
The $51 million deal reflects Shaheed's rapidly rising value in the league after he proved to be a reliable target and a versatile threat. While the total value of the contract has been confirmed, specific details regarding the guaranteed money and annual structure have not yet been disclosed.
