The Seattle Seahawks shook up everyone’s Saturday by agreeing to a blockbuster trade for New York Jets standout Jamal Adams, exchanging multiple first-round draft picks and starting safety Bradley McDougald. But New Orleans Saints wide receiver Michael Thomas is unimpressed by this latest move in the NFC arms race.

In fact, Thomas said he doesn’t want to see news reports blowing up his phone unless it has to do with his team signing Seahawks free agent Jadeveon Clowney. Seattle acquired the veteran pass rusher last offseason by swapping two players and a third-round draft pick with the Houston Texans; Clowney appeared in 15 games (including two postseason starts), notching 4.5 sacks and 16 quarterback hits. He also forced four fumbles, recovering two of them.

But Clowney hasn’t received much interest in free agency, and this move by the Seahawks might suggest a reunion is unlikely. Adams is going to demand a lucrative contract and Seattle doesn’t have the best salary cap situation as it is. Clowney’s only real reported interest has come from the Cleveland Browns, but he apparently wasn’t interested before they inked defensive end Myles Garrett to his own monster contract extension.
