Pete Carroll on Kam Chancellor situation: ‘Really, nothing has changed’

RENTON – The latest update on the Kam Chancellor situation is that there is no update. Seahawks coach Pete Carroll was asked Wednesday about where things stand in negotiations between the team and its strong safety, whose holdout has reached the second week of the regular season.

“Really, nothing has changed,” Carroll said. “It has really never been a negotiation. It’s been conversations. Nothing’s changed, though.”

Carroll said before the season began that the team’s stance on Chancellor’s holdout wouldn’t change based on anything that happened in the first few games. He reiterated that when he joined “Brock and Salk” on Monday, a day after Seattle’s season-opening loss to St. Louis.

Carroll declined to comment on the monetary gap between the two sides when asked about an NFL Network report that stated they were only $900,000 apart, according to Chancellor.

“I’m not commenting about any of that,” Carroll said. “I’m going to stay exactly where we’ve been for the whole time. I have nothing to report to you. I wish I did. I really wish I did. We’d love to figure something out but it hasn’t happened.”

Asked how he feels about how the situation has lasted much longer than most contract disputes, Carroll said: “I’m just disappointed like I know he is and everybody is that (there hasn’t been) a way to get him here. That’s all. Disappointed about it.”
