SEATTLE — Redemption couldn’t have come much quicker — or likely sweeter — for Tyler Lockett.
Mired in maybe the most mistake-prone game of his storied Seahawks career, Seattle’s longest-tenured player made the biggest play of the game when it mattered most, hauling in a 33-yard TD pass from Geno Smith in the fourth quarter for the go-ahead score to lead the Seahawks to a 27-13 win over the New York Giants.
The win was Seattle’s third in a row, improved the Seahawks record to 5-3 and gave them a victory against maybe the only team in the NFL who has been a bigger surprise — a Giants team that fell to 6-2.
