Marshawn Lynch In Talks To Return To Seattle
Free-agent running back Marshawn Lynch said that his agent, Doug Hendrickson, has been in talks with the Seattle Seahawks on a potential reunion. As usual, Lynch isn't expecting much and is said he'll be fine if a reunion doesn't happen. The bruising back turned 34 in April after unretiring for the second time before Week […]
Veteran Running Back Winners From the NFL Draft
Some of the running back picks in the NFL Draft have damaged the fantasy outlooks of veterans such as Aaron Jones, Mark Ingram, Kerryon Johnson, and Damien Williams. But there was also positive news coming out of the draft process. Several current NFL running backs saw their values and appeal rise when their existing teams either […]
UDFA Quarterbacks to Watch in Dynasty
Quarterback is the most important offensive position on a football field. Your quarterback's strengths and weaknesses are the starting point for your entire offensive's strengths and weaknesses. For this reason, it's a position that teams invest heavily in during the NFL Draft, with quarterback-needy teams often spending first round picks on players who might not […]
K.J. Wright Underwent Shoulder Surgery
Seattle Seahawks general manager John Schneider revealed on Thursday that linebacker K.J. Wright (shoulder) recently underwent shoulder surgery. However, Schneider said the surgery wasn't serious, but it remains unclear when Wright will be back. The Seahawks also drafted Texas Tech linebacker Jordyn Brooks in the first round last week, and he could slide into the […]
Rashaad Penny Could Start Season On PUP List
Seattle Seahawks general manager John Schneider implied that running back Rashaad Penny (knee) will start the season on the Physically Unable to Perform list while he recovers from a torn ACL last year. Penny's injury is typically a nine- to 10-month injury, and he suffered it on Dec. 8. Schneider said "he's doing great but […]
Chris Carson Will Be Ready For Season
Seattle Seahawks general manager John Schneider said that running back Chris Carson (hip) is doing great and will be ready for the start of the 2020 season. The Seahawks have been optimistic all offseason that Carson will be ready after he fractured his hip in Week 16 of last season. He rushed for 1,230 yards […]

Seahawks Moving On From Justin Britt, D.J. Fluker
The Seattle Seahawks are prepared to release center Justin Britt, a move that would save them around $8.5 million in salary cap space. Guard D.J. Fluker announced he was released on Sunday, a move that saves around $3.6 million. Britt missed the last eight games of 2019 with a torn ACL. With him on his […]
Seahawks Could Still Pursue Jadeveon Clowney
The Seattle Seahawks continue to say that they aren't ruling out re-signing defensive end Jadeveon Clowney, despite adding pass-rushers in free agency and taking two defensive ends in the draft -- Tennessee's Darrell Taylor and Syracuse's Alton Robinson. Head coach Pete Carroll said the team continues to stay in touch with Clowney. Clowney found himself […]
Seahawks Draft Another Tight End
The Seattle Seahawks have selected LSU tight end Stephen Sullivan with the No. 251 pick during the seventh round of the NFL Draft. The tight end spot is fairly crowded in Seattle, but they believe Sullivan has solid upside. He is a wide receiver that was turned into a tight end during his final season […]
Receiver Freddie Swain Drafted By Seattle
The Seattle Seahawks used the last pick of the sixth round on Florida wide receiver Freddie Swain. Swain is a great route runner with big-time athleticism, so he'll be a bit of a developmental project for the Seahawks. He has the speed, as evidenced by his 4.46-second 40-yard dash at the combine. Swain won't see […]
Seahawks Draft Defensive End Alton Robinson
With the 148th pick in the 2020 NFL Draft, the Seattle Seahawks selected Syracuse defensive end Alton Robinson. One of the fastest defensive linemen in this year’s draft class, Robinson has the potential to develop into a good pass rusher at the NFL level, though he’s certainly more of an athletic project right now. This […]
Seahawks Take DeeJay Dallas
With the 144th overall pick in the fourth round, the Seattle Seahawks selected Miami running back Deejay Dallas. It makes sense that the Seahawks would go with a running back in this draft after both Chris Carson and Rashaad Penny went down late last season with season-ending injuries. Dallas runs with plenty of effort and […]
Seahawks Adding Tight End Colby Parkinson
The Seattle Seahawks have selected Stanford tight end Colby Parkinson with the No. 133 pick during the 2020 NFL Draft. This is a crowded position for Seattle with Greg Olsen, Will Dissly and Jacob Hollister already on the roster. Parkinson is a solid athlete with a great ability to haul in contested balls. He finished with […]
Seahawks Gain More Offensive Line Help In Damien Lewis
The Seattle Seahawks have selected LSU offensive guard Damien Lewis with the No. 69 pick during the third round. Protecting quarterback Russell Wilson has been tough for Seattle over the last couple of seasons. Drafting a guy like Lewis will definitely help fix that problem. He's above average when it comes to movement, but he […]
Seahawks Trade Up And Grab Darrell Taylor
The Seattle Seahawks traded up with the New York Jets to get the 48th pick in exchange for the 59th and 101st picks, per NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. With that selection, Seattle took defensive end Darrell Taylor out of Tennessee in an attempt to bolster their pass rush. Taylor proved to be a capable pass-rusher […]

Seahawks Keep First-Round Pick And Take Jordyn Brooks
The Seattle Seahawks selected Texas Tech linebacker Jordyn Brooks with the No. 27 overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft on Thursday. General manager John Schneider has a history of trading his first-round picks, so it's somewhat of a surprise that they actually made this pick. Brooks had 367 career tackles in college, so obviously […]

Seahawks Not Closing The Door On Jadeveon Clowney
Seattle Seahawks general manager John Schneider said "the door is not closed" on the team re-signing defensive end Jadeveon Clowney, even though they've already added pass-rushers Bruce Irvin and Benson Mayowa in free agency. Seattle had the second-fewest sacks in the league last year, and even though Clowney has never had a double-digit sack season […]
