Richard Sherman isn’t the only corner being cut by the Seahawks. Fellow Legion of Boomer Jeremy Lane will also be released today, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN.com (on Twitter). 
Lane, 28 in July, saw the most playing time of his career between 2016 and 2017. Although he has made 15 starts over the past two seasons, he has not been a high-level contributor, according to the advanced metrics. Lane graded out as one of the five worst cornerbacks in the NFL last season, according to Pro Football Focus.
Lane entered the league as a sixth-round pick of the Seahawks in 2012 and has been with the club ever since. For his seventh year in the league, he’ll be suiting up elsewhere. His departure from Seattle nearly happened back in October, when the Seahawks agreed to send him to Houston as a part of the Duane Brown deal. Lane’s failed physical forced the two sides to adjust the trade and remove the cornerback from the swap.
By cutting Lane, the Seahawks will save nearly $5MM with $2.5MM in dead money left on the cap.
Someone on Twitter called them the Legion of Whom and it’s the best thing I’ll see all day
Speaking of Twitter, have you seen some of Jeremy Lanes tweets?
Yeah his tweet about Sherman the other day was interesting, to say the least. He probably didn’t expect that he’d get cut too.
Rams are putting the best CB’s on the field. Seahwaks are putting no one at CB
Yeah like Trunaine Johnson
Yeah you’re right. Griffin isn’t anyone. He isn’t fast or any good at all.
Exactly. Stoked to see what he’ll do next year
If past is prologue, he’ll be a cowboy by next week.
@lions
Remember when Seahawks fans laughed at 49ers (my team’s) 2014 offseason? Everyone either left or retired…well you know what they say about Karma!!
Didn’t even think about that. love it!
Yeah the Seahwaks look like a mediocre team long term. California owns the NFC west now
Goff and company are legit. I liked Goff back when he was available and even after his terrible rookie year. That team is ready to take a step as a NFC contender and possible SB contender. McVay is a phenomenal coach.
Yeahhhh only prob is we won the superbowl…and you guy’s didn’t. I’ve said it once before to the people who hate Seattle. NOTHING LASTS FOREVER. We already knew this was coming. Rub it in our faces all you want lol. Our office knows how to draft and i’m sure they will strike gold again. So talk all the smack you guys want. Get it out of your system. They thrive as underdogs.
One super bowl? Yay! Be like the 85 bears then? People hate Seattle because of their fans not because of their team. They had some really great years. But the fans came outta NOWHERE after the 2012 replacement ref game. You would think a team that finished 1st in Points Allowed Per Game 4 years in a row would win atleast 1-2 more titles. Seattle is now known more for the SB interception than it is for the 43-8 blowout the year before.
California might own the div right now but it sure isn’t Santa Clara. Remember when PC and JS took over the team? They made a bunch of cuts turned over the roster in a year and were on top of the Div the next year. Look for them to do it again. Santa Clara you will be last looking up from that expensive stadium. You still having trouble getting grass to grow there? LOL
False. It took them two years to figure it out.
7-9 in 2010
7-9 in 2011.
Nice try though trying to make you feel better about this.
They won the division in 2010.
^ Do you even know the depth chart of your defense yet? Also, no OL or RB. You will lose Richardson. Also in salary cap hell with no end insight.
