Seahawks C Max Unger triggered an escalator in his contract, raising his 2013 salary from $4 million to $4.9 million.

Unger just signed an extension last offseason. He went on to start all 16 games in 2012, earning a first-team All-Pro selection and making his first Pro Bowl team. Pro Football Focus graded him out as the No. 3 center in the NFL. The former Oregon Duck is signed through 2016.

Seahawks signed C Max Unger to a multi-year extension.

26-year-old Unger, a second-round pick in the 2009 draft, overcame durability issues in 2011 to start 15 games, grading out as Pro Football Focus' No. 17 overall center. PFF rated Unger as a strong pass blocker, but below-average run blocker. The Seahawks believe they've found their center of the future, and weren't going to risk losing Unger to free agency in 2013. Seattle's offensive line has a lot of potential this season, but it must stay healthy. Durability has been an issue at all five positions over the past few years, and we placed the O-Line 25th in our May rankings. A link to that column can be accessed below.

Seahawks C Max Unger arrived to team headquarters Tuesday sporting crutches and a walking boot.

OL coach Tom Cable called Unger's injury a "sore foot," suggesting his center could be back when the Seahawks come out of the bye to face the Browns in Week 7. Seattle's offensive line was just beginning to hit its stride the past two weeks after an ugly start.
