Seahawks fans are paying the Detroit Lions back through personal charitable donations after the latter defeated Green Bay Sunday night, sending Seattle to the postseason.
One year removed from Russell Wilson departing for Denver, Seattle’s playoff chances were extremely slim heading into the season. The team entered the year tied for the worst odds to win the Super Bowl, paired with the eventual 3-win Texans and the 7-win Falcons.
He was awarded with his first Pro Bowl for his efforts and earned an extra $3.5 million in contract incentives. Kenneth Walker III, Tyler Lockett, and D.K. Metcalf all had successful seasons alongside Smith, each going over 1,000 yards while combining for 24 touchdowns. The Seahawks will face the No. 2 seed San Francisco 49ers at 1:30 p.m. Saturday as the first of six wild-card games this upcoming weekend. You can hear all the action live on KIRO Newsradio 97.3 FM and Seattle Sports 710 AM.
