During Russell Wilson’s tenure as the Seahawks’ starting quarterback, the tight end position was often overlooked. With the exception of one strong season from Jimmy Graham, Seattle hasn’t gotten much production from this position. That’s totally changed now that Geno Smith is in charge of running the offense. Smith’s instincts have helped unlock the potential of Seattle’s tight ends, especially Will Dissly.
Heading into Week 12, three Seahawks tight ends are ranked among the top 25 at their position according to the Pro Football Focus grades. Here’s the complete top 25.
