Update: Seahawks negotiations with Leroy Hill
Posted by Danny O'Neil
I'll have to be brief right now so I can finish up my writing for Monday's print edition of the newspaper, but wanted to stop by and say president Tim Ruskell said the team intends to continue negotiating with linebacker Hill on Sunday night and Monday morning.
Todd France -- Leroy Hill's agent -- told the Associated Press that negotiations are ongoing.
Ruskell said the franchise tag was withdrawn because it had become an impediment to reaching a long-term deal. He was asked if Hill was upset at the team's decision to withdraw the franchise tag. Ruskell referred the question to coach Jim Mora, who said he spoke with Hill on Sunday morning. He said that Hill might have been a little shaken up, but still expressed a desire to get a deal done with Seattle.
That's going to have to happen sooner rather than later since he is now an unrestricted free agent.
