FB Marcel Reese being looked at

Postby Vegaseahawk » Wed Nov 30, 2016 4:20 pm

From profootballrumors.com
Reece was hit with a PED suspension that cost him part of the 2016 season. When he was eligible to return in late September, the Raiders released him. Since then, Reece has auditioned for the Patriots, Jets, and Bengals, but has yet to find an NFL home.

Reece, 31, is a multiple-time Pro Bowler thanks to his blocking ability and pass-catching acumen. In 2015, Reece caught 30 passes for 269 yards and three touchdowns and also added 36 rushing yards. A versatile back who can play a variety of roles, Reece averaged 34 receptions per season from 2010-15.

The Seahawks already have a fullback on the roster in Will Tukuafu, but he has appeared in just 45 offensive snaps this year. Seattle could be looking at Reece for a more traditional fullback role.

He is an elite pass blocker. I doubt boykin would be getting touches with him on the team. I love it. As long as he is in shape, and the ped suspension is one time thing, I hope they sign him. How often do you get an all pro, pro bowl player off the street. I can't believe he has only played six seasons. It seems like he has been in the league forever.
