Position Group Preview: Offensive line continuity ignored in favor of upside

Seemingly every year, Pete Carroll preaches the importance of continuity along the offensive line. And every year, the Seahawks pursue just that, with about the same conviction as they pass protect. In 2020, Carroll’s apparent desire for continuity preceded a near-total overhaul, with at least three of five starters from a year ago replaced. Despite the turnover up front, it’s hard not to be optimistic about the youth and upside at several positions.

Expected group

For the third full season, Duane Brown will man the left side of Seattle’s line, joined by either the veteran Mike Iupati, who performed very well in 2019, or sophomore Phil Haynes.
