The Seattle Seahawks were able to come away with a victory over the Carolina Panthers on Sunday, and it was made even sweeter by the fact that rookie quarterback Jake Bobo was able to record his first career touchdown. Bobo, who was drafted in the fourth round of the 2020 NFL Draft, had been waiting for this moment all season long.
Bobo’s touchdown came in the fourth quarter of the game, when he connected with wide receiver Tyler Lockett for a 25-yard score. It was a moment of joy for Bobo, who had been working hard all season to get to this point. After the game, Bobo said, “It felt great to finally get my first career touchdown. I’ve been working hard all season and it’s nice to be rewarded for it.”
The touchdown was also a big moment for the Seahawks, who have been relying on Bobo to help lead their offense this season. Bobo has been a steady presence for the team, showing poise and confidence in the pocket. He has also been able to make plays with his feet, which is something that the Seahawks have been missing from their quarterback position in recent years.
Bobo’s touchdown was a great way to cap off an impressive performance from the rookie quarterback. He finished the game with 18 completions on 24 attempts for 206 yards and two touchdowns. He also added 28 yards on the ground.
The Seahawks will look to continue their winning ways as they travel to face the San Francisco 49ers next week. With Bobo continuing to show improvement each week, the Seahawks could be in for a special season.
