Tyler Lockett was awful close to a rare appearance on the Duds list. Lockett has been one of the most consistent players for the Seahawks his entire tenure, but was in the midst of an atypically poor game.
Backed against their own end zone, Lockett fumbled at Seattle’s two-yard line which was recovered by New York. The Giants capitalized by scoring a touchdown two plays later, tying the game at 7-7. Later, Lockett dropped a guaranteed touchdown on 3rd down, forcing Seattle to settle for a field goal.
However, Lockett more than made up for it by hauling in a 33-yard strike from Geno Smith to give Seattle a 20-13 lead in the 4th. Lockett finished the game with five receptions for 63 yards and a score.
After the game, head coach Pete Carroll told reporters “Tyler’s the best receiver I’ve ever been around. I’ve never seen anybody do all of the things so consistently for such a long time, of course he’s going to make a double move to score a touchdown.” Lockett rewarded his coach’s unwavering faith in a big way.
