Last season in Week 1 against the Los Angeles Rams, the Seattle Seahawks lost both of their tackles to injury. Charles Cross and Abe Lucas both left early, and missed several games combined.
Unfortunately, it seems the bad injury luck to the tackle position has struck the Seahawks once more. At the end of the first quarter, during Seattle’s most successful drive, right tackle George Fant got banged up.
Although Fant walked off the field under his own power, he was seen slowly moving to the locker room. It did not take long for the Seahawks to announce he was officially ruled OUT for the remainder of the game. In his place is now 2021 6th round selection Stone Forsythe.
The Seahawks offense is struggling mightily in this one. They currently trail the Broncos 5-3 (yes, you read that one right) thanks to a holding call in the end zone which resulted in a safety.
