First to wear #42, FB Don Testerman. 1976 10th round pick of the Dolphins. In August 1976, the Dolphins traded Testerman to the Eagles for a future draft pick. He was then traded to the Seahawks in early September.Testerman made his NFL starter debut against the Dallas Cowboys on October 3, 1976. He died in 2018 due to complications with dementia at the age of 65.

Though Browner was the original 4th beatle in the LOB, Maxwell probably complimented the unit better.

Couldn’t find him in any Seahawks images.
Walter Packer was the first Seahawk to wear #40. Packer signed with the Seahawks on September 16, 1977. He was listed as a defensive back during the 1977 season and appeared in ten games while returning 13 kicks for 280 yards and 20 punts for 131 yards. He was released by the Seahawks on November 28, 1977.

watched some highlights of him recently - I had forgotten how good he was.
Brandon Browner
Not sure if there's ever been a longer pair of corners than Browner & Sherm. Loved his toughness, but unfortunately a dumba$$ off the field.

I had that card! And I have a fuzzy memory of imagining exciting game moments involving him (I was 7-8 years old), imitating Howard Cosell's delivery as I said "Eddie McMillan," even though I had almost certainly never heard Cosell say McMillan's name. Cosell's cadence and enunciation were easy even for kids to imitate.

First to wear #39, Bill Olds FB in 1976. Originally a 3rd round pick of the Baltimore Colts in 1973.
Mack Strong
Excellent FB and one of the best football names ever.

Wish I could like that one about 5 times.

Look at Shaun following him. This is the Way
Old school football. FB Lead. Pity the LB that meets up with Mack.
