Former Seattle Seahawks players who are surprisingly still free agents

Former Seahawks defensive end Frank Clark
How Frank Clark is still a free agent is beyond me. Maybe he simply wants too much money to sign somewhere. Or maybe there's just no need to sign somewhere right now as it is still June and training camps don't begin until late July. Clark can just sit back and relax knowing some team is going to pay him in 2023.
Clark was drafted by the Seahawks in 2015 and played four seasons with the team. His best year in the NFL likely came in 2018 with Seattle when Clark had 13 sacks and 27 quarterback hits. Oddly, though, he never made the Pro Bowl in Seattle. He was then traded to the Kansas City Chiefs in 2019 and subsequently made three straight Pro Bowls.
Clark is a beast in the postseason, too. He has 13.5 sacks in the playoffs which is 2.5 off the all-time record. Clark will turn 30 years old soon, but that isn't too old to help some team make the playoffs a few times and maybe Clark breaks the all-time playoff sack record. Heck, maybe Clark even ends up back with the Seahawks as he and Reed were a force to be reckoned with when the two previously played together in Seattle.
The question of Clark returning to Seattle is most likely all about money, though. Is Clark's asking price going down because he hasn't been signed in the last two months? That's debatable as teams won't be afraid to pay for a player closer to training camp they think will help them. But Clark could help the Seahawks and Seattle would just need to somehow find the money to sign him.
