Syracuse Football: Alton Robinson has a long future in the NFL

Last season Seattle struggled at times on the defensive side of the ball, specifically rushing the passer. In the 2020 NFL Draft, the Seahawks looked to remedy that issue by selecting two defensive ends and one linebacker. In this year’s draft haul, the squad added former Syracuse football star, Alton Robinson.

Last year Seattle was bottom ten in sacks per game, and their sack leader only brought down the quarterback four times. Rasheem Green led the team in that category while Quinton Jefferson was just behind in second. The big conversation for Seattle is whether or not they can bring back Jadeveon Clowney.
