Frank Clark rips Seahawks after being traded to Chiefs

Frank Clark

The Seattle Seahawks traded Frank Clark to the Kansas City Chiefs on Tuesday, and the star pass-rusher has made it clear he is unhappy with the way his former team handled the situation.

Not long after the blockbuster trade was completed, Clark shared his thoughts with ESPN’s Josina Anderson. While he insists he understands the business side of the NFL, he also said the Seahawks “used me for everything I had.”

After acquiring him for a first-round pick this year and second-round pick in 2020, the Chiefs immediately made Clark the third-highest player in the NFL by signing him to a five-year, $105.5 million extension. Kansas City was in need of a pass-rusher after trading Dee Ford and releasing Justin Houston, and the amount they paid both in draft capital and money reflects how highly they think of Clark.

Seahawks GM John Schneider was surprisingly honest this week when talking about keeping key players in Seattle, so the writing may have been on the wall for the Clark trade.
