The Seattle Seahawks may well be looking for another tight end now that veteran Greg Olsen has retired. If this was the 2011 season, a very big name comes to mind.
LeBron James, in a recent interview with The Athletic, said he received a shirt and an invitation to train from the Seattle Seahawks during the 2011 NBA blockade. James acknowledged that he also had an offer to try for the Cowboys and considered his hometown Browns also.
“I would have joined the team,” James told The Athletic. “I would have tried, but I would have joined the team. One thing about it, I don’t mind working for something, so if I had to try for the Cowboys or the Seahawks, or if I had stayed home and gone back to Cleveland, I would have tried (out), but I would have gone in on the team.
“I only know what I can do on the football field. Especially at that age. “
James was 26 at the time, he considered adding professional football to his resume. Going into the 2021 season, the Seahawks may have to look elsewhere for their narrow future.
