Seahawks Football 101: How Tariq Woolen got his pick-6 vs Lions

With the Seahawks’ 2022 season in the books, former NFL linebacker Dave Wyman is looking back on some of his favorite plays of the year.
One that really stood out to Wyman is a play that rookie cornerback Tariq Woolen made in a Week 5 win over the Detroit Lions.
Woolen was a ballhawk for the Seahawks in 2022, recording six interceptions and breaking up a number of passes as he earned Pro Bowl honors despite being a rookie fifth-round pick.
One of those six picks came in Detroit at the start of the second half, and that interception was of the pick-6 variety as Woolen ran by the Lions’ offense to score his first NFL touchdown.
