Russell Okung is still a free agent, and the one-time Pro Bowl left tackle reportedly has another meeting set up.
Okung, a first-round Seahawks draft pick in 2010 who has spent his entire six-year career in Seattle, has been reported to have met with the New York Giants on Friday, Detroit Lions on Saturday, and will talk with the Pittsburgh Steelers on Monday, according to NFL.com’s Michael Silver.

The Seahawks are said to still have interest in their longtime offensive lineman, but they have plenty of competition. In addition to the Giants, Lions and Steelers, the San Francisco 49ers also are reportedly interested.
Okung, who is representing himself in negotiations after cutting ties with his agent last year, is the last of Seattle’s seven starters that were unrestricted free agents that are still on the market.
The 6-foot-5, 310-pound Texas native is coming off shoulder surgery he underwent after the Seahawks were bounced from the playoffs.
