Option declined
Hedges' contract option for 2025 was declined, Austin announced.
ANALYSIS
Hedges will depart Austin after just one-and-a-half seasons with the club. The center-back never really took a starting role with the club, making just 21 appearances in that time. Now that he's fit he should be able to find a role elsewhere in MLS for 2025.
