The Seattle Seahawks have kicked off Monday with one other free agent signing, this time on the offensive line.
Seattle introduced the addition of former Los Angeles Rams guard Tremayne Anchrum Jr. Contract particulars weren’t disclosed, however my intestine intuition signifies it’ll be one 12 months. Anchrum solely made one begin in Los Angeles over three seasons, so it’s honest to imagine that Anchrum will probably be competing for a beginning job in Seattle. Right here’s what he needed to say about becoming a member of the Seahawks.
“I needed to come back someplace the place there was alternative,” he stated after signing. “There’s a whole lot of admiration for this group, how they play ball. Coming from the Rams aspect, I’ve all the time watched them week in and week out as a result of we play related opponents and every part like that, and once I noticed who they employed as a head coach, I used to be like, OK, they’re retooling for a extremely good 12 months and to be a extremely good franchise going ahead. I wish to be part of one thing particular.”
“They had been like, ‘There’s alternative,’ he stated. “I’m all the time one who’s up for a struggle, I’m up for competing. I’ve been competing my complete life in all areas, particularly soccer. I wish to are available in and make a distinction and make an influence.”
Anchrum gained two nationwide championships at Clemson and the Tremendous Bowl in his second season with the Rams. The seventh-round draft decide has solely performed 101 offensive snaps, 87 of which got here in two begins final season in opposition to the San Francisco 49ers. He missed nearly all of 2022 with a damaged leg and spent a superb chunk of 2021 on IR with a knee subject. Basically, he’s a profession backup, and given the Seahawks have misplaced Damien Lewis and don’t appear eager on re-signing both Phil Haynes or heart/guard Evan Brown, that is Anchrum’s probability to compete for his first beginning job.
By the way, you may overlook about signing Kevin Zeitler.
