Seahawks Tender Jake Bobo at $3.52 Million, Reversing Earlier Plan

The right-of-first-refusal tag gives Seattle matching rights without draft compensation if he signs elsewhere.

Overview

  • ESPN’s Field Yates reported the original-round RFA tender for $3.52 million minutes before the deadline at 12:49 p.m. ET.
  • Under the tender, Bobo can negotiate with other teams while Seattle retains the right to match any offer sheet.
  • If no outside offer materializes, Bobo would play in 2026 on the one-year $3.52 million tender, though the sides could negotiate a separate deal.
  • The decision contradicts a March 3 report from ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler that Seattle did not plan to tender the receiver.
  • Bobo logged two catches for 20 yards in 2025 but contributed on special teams and as a blocker, and he caught a touchdown in the NFC Championship; Seattle also recently extended Rashid Shaheed as it reshapes its receiver group.
