The price tag for wide receiver Rashid Shaheed went up quite a bit as this past season grew old, and the amount he's earned might now be too rich for the Seattle Seahawks. According to NFL insider Adam Schefter, the team and the player aren't close in contract talks ahead of free agency.
That means, of course, that the multi-faceted player could leave in free agency to a team willing to pay him $18 million a season or more unless general manager John Schneider makes one last effort to re-sign the wideout before free agency unofficially begins on Monday, March 9.
