Seahawks Consider Signing Terrion Arnold Despite Pending Charges
The Seattle Seahawks are considering signing former Detroit Lions cornerback Terrion Arnold, who is currently facing serious off-field allegations. The team's management, including General Manager John Schneider and assistant GM Joey Schneider, discussed the potential signing in the latest episode of Hard Knocks.
According to John Schneider, the team believes Arnold could be available to play in the preseason, although this seems uncertain given the gravity of the pending charges. The NFL may place Arnold on the Commissioner Exempt list if he is signed. The episode also showed footage of Arnold's workout with the team, with coach Mike Macdonald questioning whether Arnold understands the team's culture.
The potential signing of Arnold comes at a time when the team is about to undergo a change in ownership, with a vote on Vinod Khosla's bid set for August 26. The team's decision to consider signing Arnold despite the pending charges may raise questions about the team's judgment and priorities.
