The stars came out for the 85th annual MTR Western Sports Star of the Year awards Thursday night at the Seattle Westin Hotel, but none bigger, literally and figuratively, than a pair of former Seahawk offensive linemen: Hall of Famers Walter Jones and Steve Hutchinson.
Jones, one of the great left tackles in the history of the game, went into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2014.
Hutchinson, who played five seasons next to Jones at left guard (2001-05) before signing with Minnesota, learned Saturday that he was voted into the Hall of Fame.
“It’s hard to beat,” Hutchinson said.
