The Seattle Seahawks have welcomed back one of their most beloved players, Bobby Wagner, to the team. After spending the last two seasons with the Minnesota Vikings, Wagner is back to lead the Seahawks in his second stint with the team.
Wagner was originally drafted by the Seahawks in 2012 and quickly became one of the best linebackers in the NFL. He was selected to five Pro Bowls and was named an All-Pro four times during his eight-year tenure with the team. He was also a key member of the Seahawks’ Super Bowl-winning team in 2013.
Wagner’s return to the Seahawks is a big boost for the team. He is a leader on and off the field and has the experience and knowledge to help the team succeed. He is a vocal leader who will bring a sense of stability to the defense.
The Seahawks are also getting a player who is still at the top of his game. Wagner had a stellar season with the Vikings in 2020, recording a career-high 138 tackles and four sacks. He also had an interception and two forced fumbles. His performance earned him his sixth Pro Bowl selection.
Wagner’s return to Seattle is a great move for both sides. The Seahawks get a leader and a proven player who can help them compete for a championship. Wagner gets to return to a team he loves and play in front of the fans who cheered him on for so many years.
The Seahawks are now in a great position to make a run at the Super Bowl with Wagner in the fold. His leadership and experience will be invaluable as they look to make another deep playoff run. With Wagner back in Seattle, the Seahawks are ready to make some noise in 2021.
