Seattle Seahawks Sign George Fant, Former New England Patriots Tackle
Seahawks Bolster Offensive Line with Veteran Tackle
Fant Brings Experience and Versatility to Seattle
The Seattle Seahawks have signed former New England Patriots' offensive tackle George Fant to a one-year contract. Fant, 30, is a versatile lineman with experience at both left and right tackle. He is expected to compete for a starting role on the Seahawks' offensive line. Fant has played in the NFL for eight seasons, starting 53 games for the Patriots and New York Jets. He is known for his physicality and athleticism, making him a valuable asset in both the running and passing games. In 2021, he played in all 17 games for the Patriots, making 11 starts at left tackle. The Seahawks' offensive line has been a weakness in recent years, and the addition of Fant is seen as a major upgrade. Fant is a proven commodity in the NFL, and he is expected to make an immediate impact in Seattle. The Seahawks are hoping that Fant can help them improve their running game, which ranked 28th in the NFL last season. Fant is a good run blocker, and he should help create more holes for running back Kenneth Walker III. Fant is also a solid pass protector, and he should help keep quarterback Geno Smith upright. The Seahawks allowed 46 sacks last season, which was the fifth-highest total in the NFL. The signing of Fant is a positive step for the Seahawks, who are looking to improve their offensive line and make a run at the playoffs in 2023.Here are some additional details about Fant's signing with the Seahawks:
