Seahawks Sign Abe Lucas 3-Year $46M Extension

News summary

The Seattle Seahawks have signed right tackle Abraham Lucas to a three-year, $46 million contract extension through the 2028 season, reflecting strong faith in his abilities despite recent injury struggles. Lucas, who had a standout rookie season in 2022 but missed significant time in 2023 and 2024 due to knee injuries, is considered a key contributor when healthy and a potential bargain at his salary level. This extension makes Lucas just the second drafted offensive lineman to receive a lucrative second contract under GM John Schneider, highlighting the rarity of such investments in the franchise's offensive line. Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald praised Lucas's relentless effort and finishing ability, emphasizing his importance to the team's future. The contract signals the beginning of a potential wave of extensions for other key Seahawks players entering free agency in 2026, including edge rusher Boye Mafe and cornerbacks Riq Woolen and Coby Bryant. While the deal carries risk due to Lucas's injury history, the organization is optimistic about his health entering the 2025 season and his continued development as a near-Pro Bowl caliber player.
