His Seattle teammates are reportedly trying to talk him out of it.
However, the front office feels differently than the players.
"We feel like we are ready to move forward," Seahawks general manager John Schneider said on KJRA-AM 950 radio, via Bob Condotta of the Seattle Times.
"Moving on kind of seems like, 'OK we are just passing this guy off to the side.' We recognize what he has done for the organization. So again, we are going to try to handle it as properly as we can so we want to make sure that he is in the right frame of mind and he’s making the correct decision for himself."
