The Seattle Seahawks will face a familiar face when they take on the Baltimore Ravens this Sunday. Former Seahawks defensive end Jadeveon Clowney is set to make his return to Seattle in a Ravens uniform.
Clowney was a key part of the Seahawks defense for the past two seasons. He was a disruptive force on the defensive line, recording 21 tackles for loss and four sacks in 2019. He also forced two fumbles and had an interception in his time with the team.
The Seahawks signed Clowney to a one-year deal in the offseason, but he was released in April due to salary cap constraints. He then signed with the Ravens, where he has continued to be a disruptive force on defense. He has recorded four sacks and forced two fumbles in his first seven games with Baltimore.
The Seahawks will have to be prepared for Clowney’s unique skill set when they face him on Sunday. He is an explosive pass rusher who can also drop into coverage and make plays in the backfield. He is also a strong run defender and can be a disruptive force against the run game.
This will be an interesting matchup between two teams that have had success this season. The Seahawks are currently 6-2 and atop the NFC West, while the Ravens are 6-2 and leading the AFC North. It will be interesting to see how Clowney fares against his former team, as he looks to help lead the Ravens to victory.
No matter the outcome, it will be exciting to see Clowney back in Seattle and facing off against his former team. It should be an entertaining matchup between two teams with playoff aspirations.
