As Duane Brown gutted through the 2019 season, slowed by upper and lower body injuries and eventually getting knee surgery to trim his meniscus, his place on the 2020 Seahawks seemed increasingly uncertain—despite the lack of an heir on the roster. However, with D.J. Fluker and Justin Britt released and Brown carrying what would have been a sizable dead cap hit for the ‘20 season, the veteran left tackle stayed in place as Seattle’s left tackle entering the season.
And thank goodness for that.
Brown has been absolutely tremendous through the first half of the season, clearly healthier than a season ago and thriving as a result.
