Seahawks wouldn’t clear Malik McDowell. Neither should anyone else

That man is Malik McDowell, who the Seahawks selected with their first pick of the 2017 draft. It was a second-round pick, but that’s what Seattle does. He certainly isn’t regarded as a wasted pick because of a lack of talent. Rather, it was an off-field injury that took him away from Seattle. We’re finally learning a little more about the situation now from McDowell’s agent, Drew Rosenhaus.

As reported by the ever-brilliant Bob Condotta in The Seattle Times, both McDowell and the Seahawks traveled a long road to reach their parting.
