Penny’s second suitor: 2019, the Detroit Lions
Because the very next year, John Schneider’s good buddy the-team-that-gave-away-Quandre-Diggs came calling. Another RB the Lions were checking in on at the trade deadline: Rashaad Penny. Sounds like Lions were willing to part with a third-round pick for him but Seattle wanted more. They'll roll with Ty Johnson, J.D. McKissic and Paul Perkins at RB today.This time around things were far more substantiated. Seattle legitimately turned down Detroit’s offer for Penny at the 2019 trade deadline.
At the time, Penny had already been inactive for three games that season and only had one game with even 10 carries.Then, after returning for only three games in 2020, the popular hot take this summer was that Penny might not even make the roster.It’s a fascinating study watching patience on this team. I’d say it’s a joint effort, but Pete Carroll in particular seems to give the guys he likes not just one or two chances, but closer to five or six.
This is not to conclude that your favorite team is inerrant and “trust the process” is always it. After all, this Penny revolution comes in the same season that was probably three seasons too many running Tre Flowers out there as a starting cornerback.But it may serve as a good reminder, while so many have emotionally jumped ship this season, claiming wholesale change is needed in Seattle, that there can be massive payouts to patience.
It paid off in the way that he didn't really play until this year, a year that the Seahawks missed the playoffs and now he's an unrestricted free agent, pays off. Lol.
So now they either pay him or get nothing. Correct?
