The special teams for the Seattle Seahawks in 2018 could maybe be best described as “Michael Dickson, Yay!, Sebastian Janikowski, Ole!’’
Okay, so Janikowski did more than not really try to make a tackle against the 49ers — three game-winning field goals wasn’t nothing, especially after the failed Blair Walsh project of the year before.
But Janikowski is likely a one-and-done with the Seahawks, with Seattle having already signed free agent Sam Ficken as a possible replacement (there will likely be another candidate brought in at some point, if not more).
Dickson, though, is here to stay, the fifth-round pick having become something of a sensation in his rookie season, becoming only the second Seahawk punter to make the Pro Bowl (and first rookie since 1985), and highlighting the year for Seattle’s special teams.
