Report: Seahawks Tender Former Highland High Standout Bryan Mone
SALT LAKE CITY – The Seattle Seahawks tendered former Highland Rams standout defensive lineman Bryan Mone, according to ESPN’s Brady Henderson.
The Seahawks reporter shared the news on Thursday, March 17.
Sourcing the NFL wire, Henderson reported that Seattle tendered Mone.
The former Highland standout was tendered as an exclusive rights free agent. NFL free agency officially began a day earlier on March 16.
Exclusive rights free agents are players that have been in the league for less than three seasons and are only able to negotiate with their current team.
By extending a tender to Mone, the defensive lineman is likely to be in Seattle’s future plans and on the roster for the 2022 season.
