What’s Next for the WRs in Seattle?
For the 2022 NFL season, the Seattle Seahawks could be on the verge of a filled to the brim overhaul. The Seahawks traded quarterback Russell Wilson to the Denver Broncos on Tuesday afternoon in a bombshell trade that also included quarterback Drew Lock and tight end Noah Fant. It appears that the Seahawks can sell off pieces of their offense yet. WR Tyler Lockett, a wide receiver, could be available in a trade, as per Evan Massey.
However, things look very speculative, as the franchise may keep their star WRs Lockett and Metcalf, the self-proclaimed ‘Fastest Man in NFL.’ The only thing the franchise needs to do is get a credible quarterback to call for the plays. With Russell Wilson being traded, Tom Brady making a return, and Jimmy G on the mend, the Seahawks may go for the Draft or even hunt for some free agents in the time being.
