Seahawks’ new snapper Nolan Frese trying to stay out of the spotlight

Seahawks' rookie snapper Nolan Frese is hoping to stay as anonymous as he can in his first season replacing veteran Clint Gresham.

Nolan Frese knows there is one eternal guiding principle for long snappers.

“The less you know of my name, then the better job I am doing,’’ Frese said.

Frese’s name was said a little more than he might have liked Sunday when there were a couple of low and inside snaps, including one that contributed to a missed field goal in the fourth quarter of Seattle’s eventual 26-24 win over the Atlanta Falcons.

“We were a little inside with the snaps,’’ coach Pete Carroll said this week.
