L.J. Collier Could Finally Be Coming Around
2 years agoSeattle Seahawks former first-round defensive end/defensive tackle L.J. Collier has had an underwhelming start to his career, but defensive coordinator Clint Hurtt said during organized team activities that Collier was having one of the best springs of any Seattle defender. Collier will be fighting for playing time in a defensive-line rotation that is crowded after offseason acquisitions of Shelby Harris and Quinton Jefferson, however. The 26-year-old former 29th overall pick in 2019 had his fifth-year option declined after recording just three sacks, 33 tackles (21 solo), five tackles for loss, 12 QB hits and three passes defensed in 37 games (16 starts) in his first three NFL seasons. Collier will be hoping to put some promising performances on tape this year for when he reaches free agency next March.
