The Seahawks’ free agents heading into the offseason

Jadeveon Clowney, Germain Ifedi and Jarran Reed are among the most significant names.

The Seattle Seahawks’ 2019 season came to an end when the Seahawks lost 28-23 to the Green Bay Packers on Sunday in the divisional round of the playoffs. Here’s the list of Seattle’s impending free agents heading into the offseason (players listed with their position and 2019 salary-cap number, as determined by SpoTrac.com):

These are players with expiring contracts who have accrued at least four seasons of experience and are therefore free to sign with any team:

LB Mychal Kendricks, $4,000,000

RESTRICTED (5)

These are players with expiring contracts who have accrued three seasons of experience, meaning they are free to sign with another team.

WR David Moore, $645,000

T Jordan Simmons, $570,000

LB Emmanuel Ellerbe, $570,000

G Jordan Roos, $301,764

S Ryan Neal, $100,588
