The Seahawks have had some trouble deciding who should be the team’s long-snapper in 2016, and it might be time to check the basketball court for additional competition.

The Seattle Storm tweeted a video Thursday of guard Jewell Loyd, who won the WNBA’s 2015 Rookie of the Year, snapping the ball from her under her legs into the hoop from half court.

The Seahawk’s waived long-time long-snapper Clint Gresham this offseason, who held the position since 2010. Seattle initially signed Andrew East a $450,000 for the spot, only to cut him shortly afterward in favor of Drew Farris.

Gresham came away impressed.

Now the question: Did she catch general manager John Schneider’s attention?
