According to reports, Kevin Bentley has signed a 3yr 4 mil deal to become a Houston Texan. Clare Farnsworth has this posted here.
Even if Bentley does get a chance at more playing time in Texas, he certainly isn't being paid like a starter. It doesn't seem like the type of situation where he would let Seattle match the offer. I think they would have at this rate. He obviously wanted a better chance to make a mark. It is also possible he clashed with the new coach, however, that is pure speculation.
Anyway, good for Kevin. The Texans are on the rise. I hope he reaches his potential. The Hawks have two capable backup linebackers in Herring and Laury. Maybe now they will put an emphasis on re-signing Koutovides, who is probably being underwhelmed with similar offers.
Good luck to Bentley. He was a very solid back-up for the Hawks and he deserves the chance to play a bigger role in a defense.
ReplyDeleteHe shouldn't be be hard to replace.
Looks like Turner is going to Atlanta...Now the rumors about Warrick coming to Seattle can start...

Good luck Bentley. At least the fans understand why you would go and appreciate your play.
ReplyDeletePS. @ above comment Ugh please no Warrick to Seattle.
To the linebacker who shut down Steve Smith, thanks and good luck.
ReplyDeleteDon't worry, I don't want Dunn but you know people will start talking because of his connections to Mora, Ruskell ect....
