We all know the contempt everyone has for the Seattle Seahawks “neglecting” the offensive line and how little the front office has spent on it.
Garry Gilliam was supposed to be the new left tackle, but he lost that job to free agent Bradley Sowell. In the offseason, Sowell signed with the Seahawks for a one-year contract worth $1,000,000 with a $200,000 signing bonus. Even though Pete Carroll and John Schneider said Sowell would compete for the starting left tackle job, no one took them seriously. He appeared to be a “camp body” who we’d forget was ever here for training camp 2016.
