J.R. Sweezy signs ceremonial contract to retire with Seahawks

It seems every day the Seattle Seahawks are in an offseason of transition. The last of the “old guard” are being transitioned out from the organization, in one way or another.

Earlier this week the Seahawks witnessed a pair of retirements from beloved players. Running back Chris Carson hung up the cleats due to a neck injury, and linebacker K.J. Wright signed a ceremonial one-day contract to retire as a member of the Seahawks. However, Wright is not alone in this department.

On Friday afternoon it was announced left guard J.R. Sweezy is following in Wright’s footsteps, and will be signing a similar ceremonial contract to officially end his career in Seattle.
