Seahawks running back Eddie Lacy passed another weigh-in Monday, coming in at fewer than 250 pounds to earn another $55,000.
The news was confirmed by Lacy’s agency.
The 27-year-old signed a one-year contract with the Seahawks in March that includes seven monthly weigh-in incentives designed to keep Lacy at an optimum weight.
The team wants Lacy under 250 throughout the summer and then under 245 during the season.
