Jason Cole of Bleacher Report (on Twitter) opines that Russell Okung needs to shoot for a short-term contract with a lot of incentives.
The veteran tackle, who is representing himself, saw his field of suitors go from four to three on Tuesday when the Steelers signed Ryan Harris.
Now, Okung?s market is likely down to the Seahawks, Lions, and Giants, and that could hurt his bottom line when all is said and done.
