Trade News: Rams finally give up on Cam Akers

Trade News: Rams finally give up on Cam Akers

The 2020 second-round pick has just not been effective in Los Angeles.

The Los Angeles Rams have finally seen enough of Cam Akers and have sent him to the NFC North.

Akers has been traded to the Minnesota Vikings for what can best be described as extremely low compensation.

Minnesota has had virtually no running game through two weeks and their backfield prior to this trade consisted of Alexander Mattison, Ty Chandler, and former Washington Huskies star Myles Gaskin.

Akers was a healthy scratch against the San Francisco 49ers, a week after he put up one of the least effective...

Laundry list of Seahawks players sit out Wednesday’s practice

Laundry list of Seahawks players sit out Wednesday’s practice

DK Metcalf, Riq Woolen, and Will Dissly were among the DNPs for the Seahawks.

The Seattle Seahawks’ first practice ahead of Sunday’s Week 3 home game against the Carolina Panthers was pretty light on players who actually practiced.

If you want good news, it’s the fact that Jamal Adams was a full participant as promised by Pete Carroll. Doesn’t mean that the safety will be playing this weekend, but it shows he’s closer to his season debut. Noah Fant and Derick Hall were also on the injury report but practiced in full.

Evan Brown missed a few plays against the...

Injury Roundup: Will Dissly and Riq Woolen banged up after win in Detroit

Injury Roundup: Will Dissly and Riq Woolen banged up after win in Detroit

The Seattle Seahawks escaped Ford Field with an overtime victory over the Detroit Lions, and while they avoided any serious injuries in the process, several players were dinged up and could potentially miss time going forward.

One of the names that fans were most concerned about regarding a possible injury was tight end Will Dissly, as the reports that the Seahawks were looking to poach a blocking tight end off the practice squad of the Philadelphia Eagles sent alarm bells off for many. The fears of those fans were confirmed by Seattle head coach Pete Carroll Wednesday, as he stated...

Injury Update: Seahawks rookie Mike Morris out for season

Injury Update: Seahawks rookie Mike Morris out for season

The former Michigan star will need surgery on his injured shoulder.

It looks as if Mike Morris’ rookie season with the Seattle Seahawks is already over.

The former Michigan defensive lineman was placed on injured reserve on Wednesday, but since it’s the regular season there’s the chance of returning off the IR list. In Morris’ case, his injured shoulder will need surgery, and Pete Carroll has confirmed that his recovery timetable will pretty much be a season-ender.

Morris played in the preseason opener against the Minnesota Vikings before missing the rest of August with the aforementioned shoulder injury. Pete had...

Bryce Young injured, Andy Dalton lurks

Bryce Young injured, Andy Dalton lurks

We’ve been here before, and it doesn’t always go well.

The Seattle Seahawks are coming off a thrilling win and may be set to face the most dreaded opponent yet:

A backup quarterback.

Bryce Young, who did not play well against the New Orleans Saints, hurt his ankle and missed the first practice of the week.

The first overall pick in the 2023 NFL Draft, Young’s status is now in question as the Carolina Panthers add a quarterback to the practice squad.

It should be noted that the Carolina backup is Andy Dalton, who last led the Saints to a...

Seahawks officially promote Artie Burns to 53 man roster, Mike Morris to IR

Seahawks officially promote Artie Burns to 53 man roster, Mike Morris to IR

It was reported Tuesday the Seahawks would be promoting Burns to the active roster and the question became what the corresponding move would be.

The secondary of the Seattle Seahawks was much talked about during the offseason, with a unit that outperformed expectations in 2022 adding fifth overall pick Devon Witherspoon in the draft and free agent Julian Love through free agency. With Pro Bowl free safety Quandre Diggs acting as the cornerstone of the group, and the potential for All Pro Jamal Adams to return to action in the coming weeks is reason for Hawks fans to be excited....

Report: Seahawks to waive Tyreke Smith

Report: Seahawks to waive Tyreke Smith

Fans spent much of the offseason waiting for the Seahawks to make an addition to the defensive line, but now even as injuries have hit the defensive front seven, the Hawks have opted to waive a 2022 fifth round pick.

The defensive front seven of the Seattle Seahawks has been particularly stout against the run early in the regular season, limiting the ability of both the Detroit Lions and the Los Angeles Rams to move the ball consistently on the ground. That performance is in spite of several injuries in the defensive front seven, with Boye Mafe, Mike Morris and...

Report: Seahawks poaching TE off Eagles practice squad

Report: Seahawks poaching TE off Eagles practice squad

After Will Dissly, Noah Fant and Colby Parkinson combined for a good game against the Lions, the Seahawks are adding another tight end.

As the Seattle Seahawks get set to host the Carolina Panthers at Lumen Field in Week 4, injuries at several positions continue to create depth issues for the Hawks. Specifically in the trenches, where Abe Lucas and Charles Cross were lost in the Week 1 defeat to the Los Angeles Rams, while Boye Mafe and Mike Morris missed the Week 2 win over the Detroit Lions due to injury.

With that in mind, reports Tuesday indicated that...

The Class of 2024 nomination process is underway.

The Pro Football Hall of Fame announced 173 modern-era nominees for the Class of 2024, and there are no shortage of Seattle Seahawks legends on the initial list.

Open thread: The Season of Boom docuseries is here!

Discuss the look back at the 2013 Seahawks Super Bowl season right here!

We are 10 years removed from the Seattle Seahawks’ unforgettable Super Bowl season. Off the heartbreak of losing in the Divisional Round to the Atlanta Falcons in the previous season, the theme for the 2012 side in the NFL Yearbook was “Learning to Finish.” It was a fitting title for a young, exciting team that lost several 4th quarter leads and narrowly lost out on a first-round bye as a result.

Needless to say, the Seahawks learned to finish in 2013 and captured the franchise’s first Lombardi...

Trying to get to the bottom of why Tyler Lockett is underrated

Trying to get to the bottom of why Tyler Lockett is underrated

Year in and year out, no receiver quietly succeeds more than Lockett.

Through two weeks, Tyreek Hill has three receiving touchdowns. There are 16 receivers tied with two. Tyler Lockett is one of them.

Lockett often finds himself near the middle of volume WR stats; he has for his entire career.

And yet, Tyler Lockett continually shows up in the biggest moments of Seattle Seahawks games, while virtually never doing anything that harms the team. His second touchdown of Week 2 turned into the first offensive walk-off win in the 2023 season.

And thus, it only took until Week 2...
