Should Seahawks keep an eye on Yetur Gross-Matos at the combine?

The Seahawks could select another defensive end in this year’s draft and should keep an eye on Penn State’s Yetur Gross-Matos at the combine.

The Seattle Seahawks, along with the rest of the teams in the league, will be keeping a close eye on this year’s prospects at the 2020 NFL Scouting Combine later this month in Indianapolis.

Always seeking to improve their pass-rushing capabilities, the Seahawks could very well look to snag another defensive end in April’s draft.

In his recent piece on naming one player for each club to watch, NFL.com’s media analyst Charley Casserly believes Seattle should take a closer look at Penn State’s Yetur Gross-Matos.

“Jadeveon Clowney is a free agent and the Ziggy Ansah experiment did not work,” writes Casserly. “The success of Seattle’s defense starts with having a good pass rush. The athletic Gross-Matos is a playmaker, as evidenced by his 17.5 sacks and 35 tackles for loss as a two-year starter at Penn State.”

While Ansah and his injuries might have been a disappointment for Seattle, Clowney potentially signing a contract extension isn’t outside of the realm of possibility.

The combine kicks off Sunday, Feb. 23, so be sure and follow our complete coverage here at Seahawks Wire.
