George Fant to remain at left tackle for Seahawks, Bradley Sowell and Garry Gilliam competing at right tackle

The news that Bradley Sowell was now back and ready to play for the Seahawks Sunday against the Eagles led to the question of where he would fit back into the lineup. Would he resume his role as the starting left tackle, or would take on another role such as moving to right tackle and competing with Garry Gilliam?

The answer came after Wednesday’s practice from offensive line coach Tom Cable, who said Fant will remain as the starting left tackle while Sowell will compete with Gilliam on the right side.

“We’re competing at right tackle with Garry and with Brad and George continue to grow and what we are trying to do, it’s obvious I think, but get the best five guys on the field and that mentality doing it right, the right mentality and going for it every down,” Cable said.
