According to Tom Pelissero of the USA Today, six exclusive rights free agents were tendered including DeShawn Shead and Cooper Helfet. The other who may have received a tender are CB Marcus Burley, DT A.J. Francis, S Steven Terrell, CB Mohammed Seisay, S Eric Pinkins, and DT Jesse Williams. We are not sure which ones were signed.

The Seahawks also slapped Patrick Lewis with the low tender which is an original round tender.
