Assessing Stone Forsythe’s chances of becoming the Seahawks’ Week 1 starting right tackle

The starting right tackle spot is an open competition for the Seattle Seahawks due to the departure of Brandon Shell this offseason.

Then you have rookie Abe Lucas, who was Seattle’s third-round pick in this year’s draft, and Stone Forsythe, a 2020 sixth-round pick who played just 14 offensive snaps as a rookie but has been in the mix at RT this camp. We’ve previously covered the likelihood of Abe Lucas becoming the Week 1 starter, in this article we are going to see how likely it is that Stone Forsythe gets the opening day nod.
