And while no NFL team can guarantee the health of its players at any particular position group, the Seahawks are heading into 2021 confident they'll get significantly more production out of their tight ends in 2021. For starters, Dissly has been able to spend this offseason preparing for a football season rather than rehabbing a serious injury like he had been each of the previous two years.
"It's night and day," Dissly said earlier this offseason. "… My legs are feeling great. We worked hard on getting symmetry back, so both legs are feeling equally strong, and it's translating to route-running and getting off the line and blocking ability."
The Seahawks are also expecting big things out of free-agent addition Gerald Everett, who comes to Seattle from the Rams, where he worked with new Seahawks offensive coordinator Shane Waldron.
"Gerald brings some factors that we have not had here before—his route running ability, his speed," Seahawks coach Pete Carroll said. "If you watch his stuff, his run-after-catch is excellent. He's a very, very aggressive runner with the football, which is really exciting. Catching and running, he can get the ball in his hands and make things happen. And he's been a really active, willing blocker in our scheme, as we've seen in the Rams program. So he's just incredibly exciting addition. Because of the flexibility, you can line him up out of the backfield, he can be in a slot, he can be outside, all of that stuff—he's got wide receiver ability as a tight end. So that's a real positive for us and I'm really pumped about that. He knows everything, he knows the offense too, so he's just been really pleasantly just a great addition."
