Ex-UW Huskies Jermaine Kearse, Kasen Williams and Kevin Smith create unique dynamic with Seahawks

Says Seahawks receivers coach Dave Canales: “They are like brothers, because they have spent so many years together. So it makes it really fun.’’

RENTON — First, Kasen Williams was called back by the Seahawks after failing a physical with the Cincinnati Bengals.

Then, after three months on the practice squad, he was called up to the active 53-man roster in late December, giving the Seahawks three former University of Washington players among their five-man receiving corps they will take into Sunday’s divisional playoff game at Carolina.

It was a call Williams made on draft day, though, that stands out most to Seahawks receivers coach Dave Canales.
