Will Seahawks re-sign Super Bowl MVP Kenneth Walker III?
Briefly

Will Seahawks re-sign Super Bowl MVP Kenneth Walker III?
"He tried negotiating with me five minutes ago. It was really weird. We'd love to have Ken back, and he knows this better than anybody -- it's about our 70 and our collective and what that's going to look like. We'll have those meetings down here. We'll start talking to all the agents and we'll have a better feel of where we're going towards the end of the week."
"With ESPN's Adam Schefter reporting last week that Walker is not expected to receive the franchise or transition tag from the Seahawks, there's a real possibility that he signs elsewhere when free agency begins next week. If so, he'd become only the fourth player all-time to win Super Bowl MVP and begin the following season on another team."
Seattle Seahawks general manager John Schneider publicly celebrated running back Kenneth Walker III's Super Bowl LX MVP performance at the team's championship parade. However, contract negotiations between the Seahawks and Walker's representatives began at the combine this week with uncertain prospects. Schneider indicated the team is prepared for Walker to sign elsewhere if no agreement materializes on Seattle's terms. ESPN reported the Seahawks will not use the franchise or transition tag on Walker, making him a free agent when the signing period begins. If Walker signs with another team, he would become only the fourth Super Bowl MVP in history to start the following season on a different franchise.
