Seattle Seahawks to re-sign WR Rashid Shaheed on 3-year, $51 million deal

SEATTLE - The Seattle Seahawks are re-signing wide receiver Rashid Shaheed on a three-year, $51 million deal.

A source confirmed with FOX 13 Seattle that the deal is "expected."

It was first reported by NFL insider Adam Schefter, who said Shaheed's new contract includes $34.7 million guaranteed.

The Seahawks acquired Shaheed in a trade with the New Orleans Saints on Nov. 4, just before the NFL trade deadline. Seattle sent fourth- and fifth-round picks in the 2026 NFL Draft in exchange for Shaheed.

Shaheed made $4.2 million last season in the last year of his contract with New Orleans. Soon after he joined the team, Shaheed stated publicly that he wanted to stay in Seattle long-term.

By the numbers:

Shaheed came up big on special teams as a punt returner, scoring a punt and kickoff return touchdown, and totaling 628 returning yards for the Seaawks last season. He also made the Pro Bowl as a returner with the Hawks.

On offense, Shaheed had 15 receptions for 188 yards, and rushed the ball seven times for 64 yards.

Shaheed quickly got used to the Seahawks' playbook after joining the team, as his old offensive coordinator, Klint Kubiak, was managing Seattle's offense. Kubiak has since departed for a head coaching job with the Las Vegas Raiders.
