Seattle Seahawks Mount Rushmore of Last Decade: 2014-2024
Who Is Best Seahawks Player Of Past 10 Years?
Going into the 2024 season, the Seattle Seahawks Super Bowl odds are +8000 at BetMGM Sportsbook.
Linebacker Bobby Wagner has an approximate value of 128 with Seattle, according to Pro-Football-Reference.com. He has had two stints (nine years total) with Seattle, playing for the Seahawks from 2014-2021 and again last season. The second-round draft pick out of Utah State and the staple of the Seahawks defense has had 1,706 total tackles, 996 solo tackles, 33 sacks, 13 interceptions and six forced fumbles in his storied career. In his return to the Pacific Northwest last season after one season with the Rams, he had one of his best years. Wagner recorded 183 total tackles (his best in a season), 96 solo tackles (second most) and 3.5 sacks (second most) in 2023.
Quarterback Russell Wilson (125 AV with Seattle from 2014-21) was the centerpiece of the Pacific Northwest franchise for 10 seasons. During his tenure, which began in 2012, he completed 3,079-of-4,735 passes (65%) for 37,059 yards, 292 touchdowns and 87 interceptions for a 101.8 quarterback rating. This includes 31 comeback wins and 39 game-winning drives.
Wilson also led the Seahawks to two Super Bowl appearances. Seattle won its lone title in February 2014, just before our 10-year counting period, then lost to the New England Patriots the following season. He has spent the past two seasons with the Denver Broncos.
Wide receiver Tyler Lockett (78 AV) is the one player on our list who has spent his whole career so far with the Seahawks, who have +3000 odds at Caesars Sportsbook to win the NFC and reach the Super Bowl next season. Lockett has been with Seattle for the past nine seasons (2015-current) and was a trusted go-to wide out for Wilson during his tenure there. Lockett has played 144 games for Seattle, piling up 612 receptions for 7,994 yards (13.1 yards per catch) and 59 touchdowns.
Linebacker K.J. Wright (53 AV from 2014-20) was with the Seahawks for 10 seasons, starting in 2011. He played 161 games (148 starts) during his entire career, including seasons before our 2014 cutoff. He recorded six interceptions, nine fumble recoveries and 941 total tackles (593 solo) including 66 for loss. Wright played for the Las Vegas Raiders in 2021, his final season in the league.
