Michael Dickson, unsung hero

The Seahawks’ 2020 season was marred by inconsistency on the offensive and defensive side of the ball. The team’s one consistently elite unit was special teams. Michael Dickson, the Seahawks’ incredible punter, had the second-highest punting average in the league, and had 32 punts downed inside the 20 yard-line. No other punter had 30+.

Dickson’s brilliance was clear when he came into the league as a rookie in 2018; he was awarded First-Team All-Pro at his position, as well as a spot in the Pro Bowl. Dickson was given this honor in large part due to his punting volume.
