NFL will put Terrion Arnold on exempt list when and if Seahawks sign him
Key Points:
- The Seahawks have not yet signed free agent cornerback Terrion Arnold, and if they do, he will be placed on the NFL commissioner's exempt list, meaning he cannot play.
- Players on the exempt list still receive their salary, which counts against the team's salary cap, raising questions about why the Seahawks would sign Arnold under these conditions.
- Arnold faces eight felony charges with a potential life sentence, complicating the situation for the Seahawks and their incoming ownership group, Neeru and Vinod Khosla.
- The Seahawks are reportedly "working through the timing" of Arnold's signing, but the process may be prolonged or possibly never completed.
