The Seattle Seahawks open the 2020 season on the road at the Atlanta Falcons on Sept. 13. The Seahawks hope to build on a 2019 season in which they won a playoff game and were less than a yard short (literally) of winning the NFC West title and having home-field advantage in the postseason. Seattle has made the playoffs in eight of Pete Carroll's 10 seasons as head coach and seven of eight years since drafting quarterback Russell Wilson.
Here's a 53-man roster projection:
QUARTERBACK (2): Russell Wilson, Geno Smith
Wilson's durability allows the Seahawks to carry only two quarterbacks on their active roster, and Smith is in no danger of losing the backup job to Danny Etling or undrafted rookie Anthony Gordon. Those two could be competing for a spot on the practice squad.
