Why Seahawks see no need for more competition at linebacker

Minicamp has barely finished, the Seattle Seahawks don’t report for training camp for more than a month, but the calls for the team to add competition at the linebacker spot are strong from several fans and observers. In particular, there has been a steady chorus of calls for the team to bring back K.J. Wright, and while that remains a possibility, it’s almost July and that not only hasn’t happened yet, it seems unlikely.

That, of course, leads to the question of why, and the simple answer is that there are a whole lot fewer question marks at the linebacker spot than there are elsewhere on the roster.
