While so far this season the Seattle Seahawks have not made the splash moves that many fans and observers had anticipated to address the offensive line, in recent days John Schneider and the rest of the front office have taken to fixing the special teams.
This was especially vital after a 2024 season that saw Seattle struggle at times on special teams, with the decision eventually being made to move on from both Laviska Shenault and Dee Williams, and leaving fans wondering who would be returning kicks.
That question was answer Tuesday when the Seahawks announced that had solved the special teams issues with the addition of Steven Sims.
Since entering the NFL as an undrafted free agent in 2019, Sims has been with the Washington Commanders, Buffalo Bills, Pittsburgh Steelers, Houston Texans and Baltimore Ravens.
Most importantly, however, is that this signing reunites Sims with new Seattle offensive coordinator Klint Kubiak, pairing the duo together for the first time since they combined to help the mighty Kansas Jayhawks to an 0-12 record during the 2015 season.
During his six years in the NFL Sims has hauled in 78 passes for 704 yards and five touchdowns, but more importantly has returned 74 punts and 91 kickoffs while only fumbling 10 times.
