The Seahawks are giving Chance Warmack an opportunity.

The former first-round pick, best known while at Alabama for a jersey that wasn’t quite long enough to cover his belly, is back in the NFL after a one-year hiatus.

Per a league source, the Seahawks will be signing Warmack.

The 10th overall pick in the 2013 draft, Warmack spent four years with the Titans and two with the Eagles. He was a member of the Super Bowl LII champions.

Word recently emerged that Warmack was hoping to get back into the game.

  1. He really didn’t do much after coming into the league with a lot of fanfare. Not sure if he was overrated and lacked talent or didn’t apply himself. Hope he can show something to help Seattle

  2. Kicking the tires on lots of players is tough given the current travel restrictions. Glad to see the Seahawks continue to press on.

  3. I think that’s 5 offensive lineman signed in FA so for for the typically mediocre offensive line of the Seahawks. Too bad there’s no off-season to work them into the offense, but you never know.

  4. When asked about the signing, GM John Schneider chose to quote that noted football scouting group called the Plastic Ono Band:

    “…all we are saying is give Pete a Chance…”

  5. “He really didn’t do much after coming into the league with a lot of fanfare. Not sure if he was overrated and lacked talent or didn’t apply himself. Hope he can show something to help Seattle”

    That’s not exactly true, although it would be true to say that he didn’t play as well as expected. Warmack was a great run blocker, as many of the Alabama guards of those few years were, but not a technically refined player and certainly not a top level pass protector. He certainly faired better than the Kuoanidjo brothers or Cam Robinson. D.J. Fluker (his now fellow guard with the Seahawks, who also played with him at Alabama) and James Carpenter are two other serviceable guards from Alabama who are that same type of player. Good at run blocking, not so good at pass blocking, serviceable players overall for teams that like to run inside.

  6. Seattle is the recycling bin for the NFL. They give players no other teams will touch a chance to prove themselves, and then Penny-pinching Mode let them go to greener pastures. Then they recyle some other players again.

    How’s it feel to be owned by a “recycling bin” ?

    24-13 head to head Seattle advantage since 2002 (When Seattle joined the NFCWest)

    Since that time:
    The 9ers have gone 148-171-1 (=losing record…lol)
    The Seahawks have gone 167-120-1 (winners)

    If Seattle is a Recycling bin, the 9ers must be a garbage disposal.

  8. Thanks for motivating me to me sort that out…from now on, we’ll all interpret “Penny Pinching Mode as a complement.
