Current free agent and former Seattle Seahawks linebacker Mychal Kendricks has been medically cleared by Dr. Daniel Cooper to play for the 2020 season, and therefore search for a new NFL team, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter.
Kendricks tore his ACL against the San Francisco 49ers in 2019, ending his season last year. Prior to that injury, he recorded 71 tackles (47 solo), three sacks, four pass deflections, and an interception. Now that he can sign with a team again, a reunion with Seattle is possible, especially considering Kendricks’ sentencing for insider trading has been postponed indefinitely.
The chances of Kendricks signing with the Seahawks for 2020 are unlikely, given that the team drafted Jordyn Brooks, brought back Bruce Irvin and Benson Mayowa and has Bobby Wagner, KJ Wright, and Cody Barton at the linebacker position as well. However, anything is possible in the NFL.
Should Kendricks find a way to resolve his legal issues, he could possibly end back up in a Seattle uniform.
