Fans of the Seattle Seahawks were expecting the release of Kam Chancellor, which had become nothing more than a formality following the neck injury he suffered in Week 10 of 2017 that led to the end of his playing career. However, when the team also announced that they were releasing wide receiver Doug Baldwin, that caught the majority of fans off guard, and the responses and emotions were strong.
However, Baldwin enjoyed a fantastic eight year career with the Hawks, and while he’ll never make the Hall of Fame, his performance will go down as one of the greatest careers in NFL history for an undrafted receiver.
