Matt Hasselbeck, who will be a free agent when the NFL lockout ends, discussed his future with an ESPN affiliate in Milwaukee on Wednesday. Hasselbeck has appeared likely to re-sign the Seahawks this offseason, while at other times there have been reports that he's done in Seattle. "I definitely am hopeful to be back here, but at the same time, I understand that with a new GM, with a new regime, they sometimes want to go in a different direction. That could happen, too. I am prepared for whatever. Right now, I am just trying to get strong, really improve in some areas on the field and make a big leap this year physically and be ready to play at a high level -- play hopefully the best football of my career," he said. "Either way, it's a new offense. Darrell Bevell is the offensive coordinator here now. I have been with Darrell in Green Bay. I really like him as a coach. I love the offense he is installing here. If I was in charge of the offense, it is the offense that I would install. That learning curve would be good. "Either way, it's going to be a pretty new coaching staff. There is a lot of change here in Seattle in terms of the roster. They like to change the roster as much as they can, probably in an effort to get younger. You are going to have new teammates either way. We'll see. I'm open to whatever. I am hopeful to be here, but sometimes those things aren't in your control. Right now, the only thing I can affect is how I train, how I work out and how ready I am once this thing gets lifted."
