## Resource

The Seahawks Forever countdown of the Top 20 Most Important Seahawks continues today with players #16 and #15 — and this pairing gives us two very different kinds of importance. One is a young, ascending offensive weapon who feels like he’s sitting right on the edge of a national breakout. The talent is obvious, the role is growing, and the question now is whether this is the year the rest of the league fully catches up. The other is the elder statesman — a veteran who looked like he found the fountain of youth late in his career and remains a critical piece of what Mike Macdonald is building in Seattle. Two players. Two very different career arcs. Both hugely important to the Seahawks’ 2026 ceiling. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
