On Friday, the 12th Man received a rather unpleasant news update involving Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Dee Eskridge. It was announced Eskridge would be suspended for the first six games of the 2023 season due to violating the league’s personal conduct policy.
Both the Seahawks and the league were rather mum on what the issue seemed to be. Even head coach Pete Carroll declined to discuss further when asked about the situation, stating they could not talk about it.
However, it appears some clarity has been shed from Eskridge’s agency that represents him. The suspension stems from an arrest from February. The full statement can be read below.
