2020 Recap
The Seahawks made a big splash last summer, adding All-Pro safety Jamal Adams in a trade with the Jets, and aside from missing four games with a groin injury, Adams delivered in a big way, recording 9.5 sacks, an NFL record for a defensive back, and providing playmaking ability all over the field. Adams also showed a ton of toughness, playing through multiple injuries, including two broken fingers and a torn labrum in his shoulder, injuries that required multiple offseason surgery.
And Adams wasn't Seattle's only Pro-Bowl safety thanks to the play of free safety Quandre Diggs, who recorded a career-best and team-leading five interceptions in his first full season with Seattle.
At cornerback, the Seahawks came into the season with Shaquill Griffin back at left corner and Tre Flowers and Quinton Dunbar competing at right cornerback. Dunbar, an offseason trade acquisition, opened the season as the starter, but his season was cut short by a knee injury. After taking over that role, Flowers was playing some of the best football of his career when a hamstring injury landed him on injured reserve. Fortunately for the Seahawks, D.J. Reed, a summer waiver claim, played very well taking over that job, and showed he could be an option to start at cornerback going forward depending on what happens in free agency. Reed turned out to be a bright spot after joining the team from the non-football injury list midway through the year, starting games at left and right cornerback and nickel corner while also handling return duties.
Unfortunately for the Seahawks, Marquise Blair, a standout in training camp after moving to the nickel spot, tore his ACL in Week 2, but the good news was that Ugo Amadi was more than capable filling that role the rest of the year. Blair's return in 2021 should provide a big boost for the defense considering how impressive he was in camp prior to the injury.
