Wide receiver Tyler Lockett had himself a banner night in Green Bay, although it wasn’t enough to give Seattle the win. The Seahawks fell to the Packers 28-23, ending their 2019 campaign.
Lockett, however, was one of the bright spots in the game Sunday afternoon, helping to keep the Seahawks firmly in the action.
Quarterback Russell Wilson connected with Lockett late in the third quarter for the score to narrow the Packers’ lead.

Lockett finished the day as the team’s leading receiver, hauling in nine catches on 10 targets for 136 yards and a touchdown.
And as usual, Wilson’s No. 1 target was right where he needed him to be, including during this amazing play featuring one heck of a hit. Lockett managed to hold onto the ball, a crucial catch for Seattle.

Although the season may be over, Lockett and Wilson are just getting started – only one year removed from Doug Baldwin heading the roster. It’s safe to expect bigger and better things from these two in the future.
