Seahawks Field Trade Calls on Boye Mafe, Riq Woolen Before Deadline

Seattle indicates it will only listen for premium returns ahead of Tuesday's 4 p.m. ET deadline.

Overview

  • Multiple teams have contacted Seattle about the availability of linebacker Boye Mafe and cornerback Riq Woolen, according to ESPN.
  • League sources say the Seahawks have not wanted to trade either player despite the uptick in inquiries.
  • This season’s production has dipped for both defenders, with Mafe entering Sunday without a sack and Woolen still seeking his first interception.
  • Mafe and Woolen, both drafted in 2022, are on rookie deals that are set to expire after this season.
  • Rival front offices are weighing Seattle’s future paydays for Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Charles Cross and Devon Witherspoon, and late bidding could test the team’s stance.
