Tyler Lockett told teammates Russell Wilson was using the same hand signals as in Seattle

Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett noticed during Monday night’s game that his old teammate, Broncos quarterback Russell Wilson, was using the same hand signals he used to use in Seattle.

Lockett was mic’d up for the game and can be heard in the highlights telling other Seahawks players what Wilson’s hand signals meant.

“If you see this,” Lockett said while making a hand gesture to Seahawks safety Tariq Woolen, “it’s a go.”

Lockett was then shown on the sideline yelling, “He’s running a go! He’s running a go!” to the Seahawks’ defense after seeing Wilson’s hand signals.

Lockett then walked up and down the sideline informing teammates that Wilson was using the hand signals he used with the Seahawks.

“They got our same stuff. I literally called it,” Lockett said.

After the game, Lockett shook hands with Broncos receivers Courtland Sutton and KJ Hamler and warned them that the hand signals the Broncos’ offense used were predictable.

“Change them signals,” Lockett said.

That’s what Wilson should have done before meeting his old team.

  1. That’s on the Head Coach. Hackett will be lucky to make it through his first season. Broncos better start making their list of candidates to interview.

  2. Wilson doesn’t care, because he knows he looks better throwing a 65 yard incompletion than a completed check down to an RB.

  3. Seattle cheated!

    I just know this is unfair! Seattle Cheats!

    In all seriousness, it goes right along with this Diva-itis we’ve been hearing about with him on the heels of the Brady/Rodgers antics.

  4. So you’re telling me that Seattle is going to look just as bad as everyone expected against every other opponent they face?

  5. It seems like except for the two fumbles on the one yard line the Bronco offense ran up and down the field pretty well. This sounds like it is not true. Like Tyler Lockett made it up just to make himself sound smart and important. If it was really true you would think that Pete Carroll would have noticed it and said something too.

  6. The Broncos running backs were using the hand signals from the song YMCA while rushing at the 1 yard line.

  7. That’s on the Head Coach. Hackett will be lucky to make it through his first season.

    Really? Is Wilson a rookie?

  8. Embarrassing. Your defense gave up 340 yards passing to Wilson even though they knew his signals?

    Good luck the rest of the season…

    Read the article, this is not some claim he made in an interview. It was spotted on video that he was calling the plays from the sidelines.

    Im not going to get into what that means regarding how good/bad either team is. That seems like a separate area.

    And I want to add yet another lol to the comments because I think its hilarious.

  10. Lockett Launcher don’t need to make himself look good, by making Russ look Bad. Russ does that himself.

  11. Thought Kliff might be the first HC gone, but Hackett looks as inept as McCarthy. Never good to be part of the previous regime and an easy fall guy for Wal-Mart Rob. Can’t be Russ since he is locked up for the next few years.

  12. That’s bad news for Seattle. Russell kicked their butts all over the field. Two fluke fumbles on the one inch line erased 14 points, and Denver still should have won. Actually, it doesn’t make any difference. If there’s a chess match going on, Russell Wilson will win that most of the time. Either Lockett wasn’t getting the correct information, or he wasn’t passing it along to his defense. Russell kind of had his way with Seattle.

  13. Kind of like how Bill Belichick knew that bang-bang dump pass was coming. At least this didn’t cost anyone a Super Bowl.

  14. Oh is that why Denver’s offense had 455 yards and was moving the ball at will until they idiotically fumbled twice at the goal line? Seattle D was not stopping anyone.

  15. Lockett is too nice to be a real threat as a WR. He probably reminded his teachers to collect the homework whenever they forgot

  16. Well let’s see. Wilson completed about 68% of his passes for 340 yards. So I guess that means Seattle’s defense is even worse than we saw. Maybe with revised hand signals he throws for 500.

  17. That may explain why he struggled in Seattle for the last handful of years. I’m pretty sure the hand signals should change routinely based on this thing called game film. perhaps it’s been a big defensive secret that Seattle hadn’t changed their hand signals in years.

  18. I find it curious that coach Pete didn’t know any of this during the game. You’d think he or the OC would have been clued into it.

  19. As I watched the game Monday night, I was taken aback by how effectively the Broncos ran their screen game. To my recollection, there were at least 3 or 4 screen plays that went for big yardage. Seahawk fans – remember how many of you used to complain that the Hawks, with Wilson under center, couldn’t run the screen play to save their lives?
    Interesting, isn’t it? So is it possible that the crux of the issue was, in fact, coaching rather than Wilson’s skill set? Wilson is far from perfect, but his imperfections don’t deny the fact that his game can evolve and adapt to a new system, even after just one short off-season. I’ll be interested to see how many effective screen plays the Hawks run — or probably more accurately, don’t run — with Smith under center. I guess we’ll just start blaming Geno for his ‘limited skillset,’ right 12’s?

  20. That’s funny if true. Don’t the head coach and QB have meetings where they discuss this kind of stuff? Vance Joseph was a better head coach.

  21. Well, it is quite simple. The Broncos just signed “Team 3” to a New Contract that was neither Fully Guaranteed, nor one making “Team 3” the Highest Paid Quarterback.

    If the Broncos would have given “Team 3” a Fulling Guaranteed Contract larger than the One signed by Watson, so that He would now be the Highest Paid Quarterback, he would have included New Hand Signs! You Get What You Pay For!…..smh

    Good Luck with That, Broncos!

    Go Hawks! Go Geno!

    First, who said that Pete did not know? Also, it would be the Defensive Coordinator, and the Defense that would be the ones he would talk to, not the Offense.

    Did you happen to notice the Final Score?

  24. Does it matter? Didn’t seem to slow Denver’s offense a bit. Hackett has probably let Wilson play any way that’s the most comfortable for him.

  25. Wilson’s always been a phony, he went to Denver to fleece one more team into paying him elite money instead he did 5 years ago. Denver can’t develop nor draft a qb to save their lives.

  26. Russell didn’t kick Seattle as indicated by so many here in the comments section. The Seahawks play a bend, don’t break defense. As was evident by the fact that they only allowed the One TD Pass that was so poorly thrown that Judy made a great recovery catch & then did a great job to get into the end zone. The fluke Red zone defense is what the Seahawks do. That’s the plan. It’s true, they should have gone for the first down instead of the kicking attempt from 64yds, especially since Russ is making the big bucks. However, 5 yards is not a given to be made, either. The upshot: Seahawks won.

  27. Lets ride is just as corny as lets go hawks. Same old fake Russ remember his water that could cure your ailments??

    We don’t know that they didn’t know too. All we know was what Locket was seen doing because he was the guy mic’d up for that game.

    Woulda, shoulda, coulda, it didn’t. Then to top it off, the HC decides instead of letting his 9x pro bowl QB attempt a 4th and 5 that he was going to let the kicker try a 64 yard FG. The same kicker who missed a 64 yard FG in 2019 against the Raiders and who has never made anything over 60 yards in his career. Keep losing the games you’re suppose to win and see how that adds up at the end of the season.

  30. Russ needs a sitdown with A-Rod to discuss the many mistakes he made.

    Its eerie how similar those two are. Everyone could see them for what they truly are/were.

  31. So they knew what was coming… and STILL got smoked for 340 yds? If not for 2 fumbles inside the 2, Denver puts up a 30 spot on Seattle.

    Seems like maybe the signals WERE changed and didn’t have the same meaning that Lockett thought they did…

  32. It’s funny how many say “but, but, but Russ completed passes and got a lot of yards!!!”

    One TD pass against two rookies playing DB.

    And on the other side of the ball two rookie O tackles. Guess how often that’s happened.

    I would say Seattle’s renting space in all your heads but I think they are living rent free.

    Can you imagine if the Niners LOSE to the Hawks? Their season may be over. I’m counting seven MORE possible losses.

    Meanwhile with all the rookies, Hawks will continue to improve.

    Except that Neither one of them will ever admit to making a Mistake so….

  34. Let’s be clear.

    Russ took a step towards a MVP vote.

    Who cares about the score?

    Am I right Camp 3?

  35. It didn’t make any difference. Broncos punted one time and Russ completed 69 percent of his passes for 340 yards 😂😂😂😂
