The Seattle Seahawks have agreed to terms on a deal with wide receiver Marquise Goodwin. The former third round pick should be an interesting addition to this roster. He nearly totaled an 1,000 receiving yard season in 2017. Since then, Goodwin hasn't made a huge impact on the football field. He most likely won't be someone worth rostering on a weekly basis in fantasy leagues. However, Goodwin should be able to make an impact as a rotational player in this offense.
Seattle Seahawks running back Rashaad Penny (hamstring) is currently nursing an injury, according to head coach Pete Carroll. The season is three months away, but this is not a good sign for a player with a long injury history. The former first round pick has played in 37 games through four seasons. However, Penny finished with a career-high 749 rushing yards through 10 games last season. Chris Carson (neck) has a blurry timetable, so Penny and rookie Kenneth Walker could compete for the starting role in Seattle.
Free-agent wide receiver Marquise Goodwin is signing with the Seahawks, with the terms of the deal undisclosed. The veteran finished last season in Chicago by catching 20 receptions for 313 yards and a touchdown throughout 14 appearances. Goodwin, 31, is still considered one of the quickest wideouts in the league, so he should fit in well with head coach Pete Carroll's deep-ball offensive approach. However, he isn't expected to have a prominent role, although he may occasionally find the end zone during the year.
Former Cincinnati Bengals and Minnesota Vikings safety George Iloka worked out for the Seattle Seahawks on Thursday with the idea that he could serve as a cover linebacker. Iloka hasn't played since tearing his ACL midway through the 2020 season, but he has been working towards a return to the NFL. The 32-year-old played in only four games with the Vikings before his devastating knee injury in 2020. He was originally drafted in the fifth round by the Bengals in 2012 out of Boise State. Iloka has 365 tackles (246 solo), 10 tackles for loss, three QB hits, nine interceptions, 32 passes defensed, three forced fumbles and one fumble recovery in 103 career games (79 starts) in his eight NFL seasons.
Seattle Seahawks quarterback Drew Lock currently trails Geno Smith in the race for the starting job. Lock, who the Broncos traded for Russell Wilson back in March, continues to receive plenty of praise from head coach Pete Carroll. However, given Smith's familiarity with the offense, it appears it's currently his job to lose. Nonetheless, both men may be under center at some point during the year. Still, regardless of who is the No. 1 option on the depth chart come September, each signal-caller will have an uphill climb before convincing fantasy managers they're worthy of a roster spot.
