Seahawks FB Nick Bellore dunks on D.K. Metcalf and Tyler Lockett

Seahawks fullback Nick Bellore may be the best player on the roster when it comes to dunking on his teammates on Twitter.

Twitter is a great place if you’re hoping to enable the rising tide of Fascism that will soon engulf us all or if you just want to develop a mental health problem. It is good for jokes, though.

Seahawks fullback Nick Bellore may be the best player on the roster when it comes to dunking on his teammates on Twitter. Check out this photoshop he shared yesterday of D.K. Metcalf and Tyler Lockett.

For you non-millennials: Metcalf’s head is on the body of Manute Bol, a 7-foot-7 center who was the tallest player in NBA history. Meanwhile, Lockett’s head is on Muggsy Bogues, a 5-foot-3 point guard who had plenty of game for his size. They played together on the Washington Bullets in the 90s before team was renamed the Wizards.

In real life Metcalf is only six inches taller than Lockett, but standing together it certainly looks like more.

Seahawks have 3 players who lead their positions in 2022 Pro Bowl fan voting

These three individuals currently lead their respective positions in NFC Pro Bowl Fan Voting.

There’s not much to like about how the Seattle Seahawks’ season is going. While it’s easy to get lost in doom and gloom over Russell Wilson’s performance and what may come next offseason, it shouldn’t overshadow some of the fine work Seattle’s other players are doing.

Seahawks re-signing fullback/special teams star Nick Bellore

The Seattle Seahawks are re-signing fullback Nick Bellore, who was pivotal for the club on special teams last season.

The Seattle Seahawks will be re-signing fullback and special teams star Nick Bellore. The news was first reported by PFF’s Mike Renner.

Bellore is a journeyman in the league, having first entered the NFL as an undrafted free agent for the Jets in 2011. He played linebacker through the first half of his professional career before converting to fullback with the Lions.

He signed with Seattle in 2019 and has been a factor on special teams over the last two seasons.

With a new offensive coordinator at the helm in Shan Waldron, it’s still unclear how and if he plans to utilize a fullback going forward.

Zero Jets selected to Pro Bowl despite Mekhi Becton leading fan vote for AFC tackles

The Jets had no players selected to the 2021 NFL Pro Bowl.

The Jets were shut out of the 2021 NFL Pro Bowl.

New York didn’t have a single player selected to this year’s all-star exhibition. The last time the Jets didn’t have a player voted to the Pro Bowl was in 2017, when the New York finished 5-11 under head coach Todd Bowles.

The Jets are one of five teams with zero Pro Bowl nods. The Jaguars, Bengals, Cowboys and Panthers are the other four.

Jets rookie left tackle Mekhi Becton led all AFC offensive tackles in fan voting but was not selected for the Pro Bowl. The fan vote counts for one-third of the selection.

Becton laughed when he found out he didn’t make it.

Quinnen Williams was another Jet with a strong case.

The Jets did have three former players selected to the Pro Bowl, though. Seahawks safety Jamal Adams, Seahawks fullback Nick Bellore and Bills returner Andre Roberts all made it. This will be Adams and Roberts’ third Pro Bowl and Bellore’s first.

The NFL Pro Bowl game will not take place this season due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. It was supposed to be held in Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, Nevada. Instead, the NFL will hold a virtual event on Jan. 31.

7 Seattle Seahawks named to 2021 Pro Bowl roster

The National Football League announced the 2021 Pro Bowl roster and a franchise-high seven Seattle Seahawks have made the squad.

The National Football League has announced the 2021 Pro Bowl roster and seven Seattle Seahawks have made the cut.

The Seahawks received the second-most votes of any team this year behind only the Steelers.

Although the Pro Bowl game itself will not be played due to the coronavirus pandemic, it is still a great honor to be named to the squad.

Here’s a look at who earned the nod this season.

Seahawks rank 3rd among all NFL teams in 2021 Pro Bowl voting

The Seattle Seahawks rank third among NFL teams for 2021 Pro Bowl votes among players. Russell Wilson and Nick Bellore are both ranked.

[jwplayer cylqU7r0-ThvAeFxT]

The NFL recently released the results of the first round of the 2021 Pro Bowl voting polls, and the Seattle Seahawks are well represented.

Quarterback Russell Wilson is currently second place among all quarterbacks in Pro Bowl voting with 139,839 votes behind Chiefs signal-caller Patrick Mahomes. That is certainly no surprise, as Wilson leads the league in touchdown passes with 30 through 10 games and while he has 10 interceptions, he reverted to his early-season MVP form against the Cardinals last week to help the Seahawks to 7-3 before they head into what should be a relatively easy schedule.

In addition, Nick Bellore is first among all special-teamers and the Seahawks have the third-most votes for players as a team.

However, their focus is on claiming the NFC West for the first time in four years. They will next play the Eagles on Monday Night Football on Nov. 30.
