End Of An Era: Seahawks Release Tyler Lockett

Not surprised, but it’s still a bummer. Wish he could have stayed.

Fair winds and following seas, Tyler. One of our greats.

Class act. Thank you for the many great memories, Tyler! Maybe we'll see him back with a lesser contract, if the market elsewhere doesn't work out.

Saw it coming but still sucks.

An all-time Seahawk.

Looking forward to the day he comes back and raises the 12th Man Flag and the day he returns to see his name in the Ring of Honor.

Sad day I cant image a player, who i’d wish for all the best in the future, more wholeheartedly than Tyler Lockett.

 

[Appyhawk]

I sure would hate to have been whoever had to deliver that message to Tyler.

I saw this but wasn’t a reliable source. As sad as it is it’s the right move. The day was coming eventually. Wish him the absolute best.

Frees up what should be $17 million

 

[kidhawk]

$17 million was just too much extra cap space to pay him at this point. Selfishly I hope he doesn’t find a suitor and signs back here at a more reasonable price but I wish him nothing but the best no matter what. Class act off the field and a great receiver on the field.

One of my favorites. Pure class on and off the field. He now resides in the same warm place in my heart as some of my all-time favorite slot receivers (Engram, Baldwin). He deserves a happy life. Cheers to your next adventure and thanks for the memories!

Sad day for sure, but very much expected. They're doing him a solid and giving him time to CHOOSE where he goes, imo.
Thanks for the Memories, Tyler. One of the best humans on the planet and one hell of a player.

Tyler knew this was coming.

I hope he signs with the Commanders and gets a ring

 

[SonicHawk]

The right football move but as a fan I hate it. I love TL.

 

[kidhawk]

Tyler knew this was coming.

No doubt about it. They had announced that they were in contract discussions and he obviously didn’t want to go as low as the they wanted. When he said no he knew this was the result.

Always sad to see a great and classy player go, but we have to look at the positives,,,,It's Bobo time!!!!!!!

Bobo is no Lockett

 

[rjdriver]

One of three or four Seahawks who I wish more than anything could have gotten a ring.

An absolute consummate pro, I feel blessed to have been able to root for him this past decade.

Hope he lands somewhere that appreciates him or that he is back on a much more team friendly deal.

Bobo is a JAG. Lockett is the 2nd or 3rd best WR in team history.
