Mike Garafolo: “The chances are slim to none” Jadeveon Clowney re-signs with the Seahawks

Though free agency has come to a halt and Jadeveon Clowney is still without a team, the news surrounding his free agency continues to develop. Last week, the Jets, Titans and Browns were reported to have interest in the pass rusher—whose price has dropped, per ESPN’s Dianna Russini.

On Tuesday, we learned more about Clowney’s situation in perhaps the most discouraging turn yet. Speaking with Jason Puckett and Matt Mikolas of Sports Radio KJR on Tuesday, NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo was asked the chances of Clowney returning to the Seahawks. His answer, per 950 KJR’s Twitter account, was not encouraging:

Garafolo’s “slim to none” assessment is obviously discouraging, but as we’ve learned over the last month, Clowney’s situation is fluid. Should Everson Griffen be swooped up by another team, or Seattle exits the draft without having found impact players along the defensive line, perhaps they bump up their offer. However, for now, it appears they are exploring other options.

As it has previously been speculated, Clowney could wait until training camp to sign with a team, when he could potentially visit teams and take a physical within a team’s facility. For now, however, Clowney remains available, and the Seahawks may be ready to move on.
