Latest Seahawks rumors

By: Jake Rajala

The Seattle Seahawks are one of the most polarizing NFL teams in OTAs. They will have a battle royale for the starting QB position – between the two young, rollercoaster quarterbacks in Drew Lock and Geno Smith. Their RB position is quite fascinating, as well. Per The Seattle Times, the Hawks are missing their top two veteran RBs at the moment in Rashaad Penny (minor hamstring injury) and Chris Carson (neck injury), so they’re leaning on a unique RB trio (DeeJay Dallas, Travis Holmer, and rookie Ken Walker) to handle the workload at the moment.

The Seahawks also witnessed Alfonso Smith leave for a position at the University of Miami. Per Field Gulls, he was the senior executive advisor for the Hawks and he opted to accept a position at Miami as an assistant in the Hurricanes athletic department. Smith is of course an alma mater of the U, as he was a RB stud for the Hurricanes.

The Seahawks may have some slight changes on their roster, but they will certainly strive to make magic happen with new faces this summer. According to Devin Csigi of Field Gulls, he forsees Tyreke Smith, Tariq Woolen, and Bo Melton being underrated players that could shine in 2022.

The Hawks will definitely need rookies to step up to the plate next season, but they will also really want Jamal Adams to return to his normal form. Adams set the single-season sack record for a safety in 2020, but he wasn’t able to provide success in any category last season. It would also help the Hawks defense if they could bring back Carlos Dunlap (8.5 sacks in 2021). If Dunlap doesn’t return, they will expect even more production from Uchenna Nwosu, who recorded 5 sacks a season ago.
