Michael Bennett Wants Seahawks To Pay Him Or Get Rid Of Him

Jul 25, 2016 8:00 AM

Michael Bennett is encouraging the Seattle Seahawks to either improve his contract or get rid of him.

"It is never-ending," Bennett said. "Especially when people are getting new contracts every day. You sit there and you're like, 'Damn, really?' I'm just to the point where it's kind of like, if you don't think I'm valuable, then just get rid of me."

Bennett has two seasons left on his current deal. Bennett was also unhappy last offseason with his contract.

"We're gonna make an effort. An effort so he remains a Seahawk," Pete Carroll said.

Thomas Rawls expects to be fully ready for the start of the Seattle Seahawks training camp.

Rawls suffered a fractured ankle and ligament damage during a Dec. 13 game against the Baltimore Ravens. Rawls did not participate in any of the Seahawks' spring practices.

"Rehab is going phenomenal," Rawls said before Richard Sherman's annual charity softball game. "Running, cutting, working hard, getting back out there. I'm looking forward to being out there the first week. Rehab has been going phenomenal this whole offseason. I don't have a break because I've gotta work 10 times harder. So I'm excited to come back and fill that void in that backfield."
