Tyler Lockett Leads In Receiving Yards
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett led the way amongst Seattle's receivers on Thursday night, but he was unfortunately kept out of the end zone once again.

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Doug Baldwin was targeted four times on Sunday and brought in every opportunity, allowing him to rack up a team-leading 77 yards.

Billy Stonick 6 years agoTyler Lockett Is Here For Touchdowns
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver/returner Tyler Lockett has always had a nose for the end zone ever since he broke into the league and was selected to the Pro Bowl as a return man in his rookie season, but this is new. Lockett's best season as a receiver came when he was a rookie and racked […]
Billy Stonick 6 years agoEd Dickson Could Be The Wild Card This Weekend

Billy Stonick 6 years agoDoug Baldwin OK With Complementary Role
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Doug Baldwin has seen his usage plummet in recent weeks, and he's okay with that. Sort of. Baldwin told reporters this week that the team's new (or not-so-new?) dependency on the run game has worked phenomenally well, and so he's okay with it if it helps the team win. That said, […]
Billy Stonick 6 years agoRussell Wilson Will Need To Stay Efficient Against LAC

Billy Stonick 6 years agoMike Davis May Get Another Big Chance
Seattle Seahawks running back Mike Davis has been champing at the bit in a backup role behind starter Chris Carson for the last few weeks, and he may get his chance this weekend.
