Seahawks position preview: Jarran Reed and the defensive tackles

Jarran Reed was extremely good for the Seahawks in 2018. After a couple of years to begin his career with just being decent, Reed became a straight up beast last season. Reed had 10.5 sacks and was a disruptor. The problem was that he simply didn’t have much help on the inside of Seattle’s defensive front.

Seattle had quite a lot of trouble stopping the run last year. The Seahawks ranked 30th in yards-per-rush allowed in 2018. For a team that wants to go deep in the playoffs, 30th against the run will not get them there.
