Huard’s Chalk Talk: Nick Vannett gives Seahawks another option in red zone

Nov 28, 2017, 12:40 PM | Updated: 12:54 pm

Tight end Jimmy Graham has finally broken through as a threat in the red zone for the Seahawks this season, so much so that he’s already eclipsed his previous total number of touchdowns in his first two years with Seattle combined and set a franchise record. It appears the Seahawks were able to translate Graham’s success into a TD by another tight end, as well.

Nick Vannett caught his first career NFL touchdown in the Seahawks’ 24-13 win over the 49ers on Sunday, giving Seattle yet another score in a red zone situation.

In Brock Huard’s latest Chalk Talk video above, he shows how Russell Wilson’s completion to Vannett developed.
