The Facts: Following up on the ongoing story. ... During an interview with 710 ESPN, via Sheil Kapadia of ESPN.com, HC Pete Carroll said that the team will make a "concerted effort" to make sure Lacy is in shape and that they have set a weight in the 240-pound range as the target for Lacy in the 2017 season. "I want him big," Carroll said.
Diehards Line:
As previously noted, shortly after word of that deal came from Lacy's agents, Bob McGinn of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reported that Lacy weighed in at 267 pounds during a recent free agent visit. Lacy visited with the Vikings and Packers in addition to the Seahawks and it's not clear which team got that weight, but the Seahawks don't seem put off by Lacy's girth -- something they obviously saw firsthand before guaranteeing him $3-plus million for the coming season.
