At the Seattle Seahawks’ 5th of 6 OTA Offseason Workouts today, Rasheed Shaheed stole the show with multiple explosive plays and was the highlight of the practice.
Brian Nemhauser also known as @hawkblogger went live on X and described a 40-yard touchdown he caught from Sam Darnold in detail and shared why he believes their connection will strengthen in 2026.
Shaheed burned down the sideline, and Jake Bobo apparently said “bye bye” as the play developed and it became clear he would be wide open. He was guarded by Nehemiah Pritchett, who already faces enough pressure with the bevy of cornerback additions the Seahawks made through the draft and free agency. Shaheed also caught a crossing route that Nemhauser described as being just as dangerous a threat to score as his fade routes. Nemhauser spoke excitedly of Shaheed’s opportunity to have a full offseason with the team and build rapport with Sam Darnold from the ground up, rather than forming it on the fly after being acquired midseason.
Shaheed is only 27 and has had an impressive 14.7 yards per route run to this point in his NFL career. He has four years of experience and a Super Bowl ring now, and might be able to reach a higher ceiling than most analyzing his future with the Seahawks’ originally thought. He’s a great route runner without a clear weakness other than measurable testing, which he’s put behind him with moments and film on the biggest stages. He was paid like a number two receiver ought to be and will be expected to take the load off Jaxon Smith-Njigba as a respected opposite threat.
