Bruce Irvin may actually be back with the Seahawks next season.
Irvin is a free agent, and many thought he would test the market after the Seahawks last year declined his $7.75 million option for 2016. But Irvin appears to have changed his attitude towards Seattle and says he would consider giving the team a discount.
KJR radio host Softy Mahler shared the news on Irvin:
Bruce Irvin just told me he could see himself giving Hawks a discount. Specifically mentioned 3-5 Mill a year deal. "Closer to 3"

Irvin also said Pete and John asked him if he would be willing to take less than market to stay here.

Irvin had 38 tackles and 5.5 sacks this season. The former first-round pick has 21.5 sacks in his career, all with Seattle. His willingness to give Seattle a discount is a shocker, especially when you look back at what he said in May.
