Earlier this offseason, the Seattle Seahawks added former NFL running back Alonzo Highsmith to be one of their consultants leading up to this year’s draft. Now they’ve given him a full-time role in the front office.
ESPN’s Brady Henderson reported on Tuesday that Highsmith will take up a position as a personnel executive in their scouting department. Highsmith previously served as Vice President of Player Personnel for the Cleveland Browns, and was a senior personnel executive for the Green Bay Packers from 2012-2017.
Unbeknownst to me, Highsmith also had a stint as a professional boxer after he retired from pro football.
