No. 1 Stud – Quandre Diggs
This certainly wasn’t an all-time performance from the Seahawks defense, nor did it live up to how the unit has been playing for the past month, but the lone bright spot on the day was Seahawks’ safety, Quandre Diggs.
Ever since he was acquired from the Lions, Diggs has been playing lights out football for Seattle. He has certainly brought the boom back to the L.O.B. On Sunday, Diggs snagged a pair of interceptions on back-to-back possessions, including one he returned 55-yards for a touchdown.

Quandre Diggs takes it to the house! @qdiggs6

It was Rams quarterback Jared Goff’s first pick-six thrown since his rookie year in 2016, breaking the longest active streak without a pick-six in the NFL.
It’s unfortunate the Seahawks were unable to do something with Diggs’ interceptions, as both provided prime opportunities in momentum shifts.
