Tyler Lockett To Play A Bigger Role
6 years agoSeattle Seahawks wide receiver/returner Tyler Lockett got specific mention from offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer as a primary third-down target for the team now that No. 1 wide receiver Doug Baldwin will be out for a few weeks with a knee injury. Against Denver, Seattle went just 2-for-12 on third down. Lockett's constantly been on the edge of truly breaking out, but an opportunity like this may be his chance to be the team's next small, quick, shifty possession receiver following in Baldwin's footsteps. Any bump up the depth chart is nice for a player, so hopefully Lockett can make good on the new opportunity.
