Versatility, toughness make Seahawks WR Tyler Lockett special
RENTON, Wash. -- What stood out to coach Pete Carroll, when watching film of Russell Wilson's 49-yard touchdown pass to Tyler Lockett from last Sunday in Baltimore, was the trust.
"The speed is what jumps out, and then Russell’s trust that he would run by the guy," Carroll said. "Because Russell has to throw that ball before he’s by him, so he gave him a shot at it. He’s a good threat down the field, and he’s really, really fast."
Baltimore Ravens cornerback Lardarius Webb was giving Lockett a big cushion, and the rookie was running a straight go route down the right sideline. When Lockett was at the Baltimore 33-yard line, Webb was still on top of him. That's when Wilson let the ball go.
