Where are they now?

[Hawk096]

This is where I will discuss former Seahawks and what they are currently doing.

To start us off Kerry Joseph- Joseph played Safety for the Seahawks from 1999-2002 until they let him go. Since then he has played in the CFL and is currently a QB for the Toronto Argonauts. In 2007 he won the Grey Cup for the Winnipeg Blue Bombers.

Next up will be Chad Brown whose birthday was July 12th. Any players you guys would like to see let me know!

Since Chad Brown was let go by the Seahawks he signed with the Patriots. He played one year with them and then signed with the Steelers after they defeated Seattle in Super Bowl XL. In 2007 he re-signed with New England and since then he's been out of football. He had been writing a blog on profootballtalk.com about his experience as an NFL player, but I haven't seen any lately. With the Seahawks he made two Pro Bowls with the Seahawks and one All-Pro team. Brown will always have a heart in the Seahawks fans for his play on the field and commitment to Seattle as he was a key part in rebuilding them and a start to a dominant linebacking future.

After being let go after the 2000 season Cortez Kennedy had oppurtunities to sign with other teams in the NFL, but wanted to walk away with the team that made him a third-overall selection in the 1990 NFL Draft. Since then he won Defensive Player of the Year, made eight Pro Bowls (A Seahawk record until Walter Jones broke the record), three All Pro teams, a member of the 1990's All-Decade team and a Ring of Honor after all of it was done has left Kennedy as the most likely next in line true Seahawk of joining the Hall of Fame. Since his retirment Kennedy has been a finalist for the Hall of Fame call and awaits for his enshirenment. However as all of that goes on Kennedy has been raising his daughter, hunting and fishing, while living a retired NFL life. Kennedy said in a recent interview with the Seattle PI "I'm loving life" saying "When your only worry is about raising your daughter you forget everything you did in your sports days." Kennedy was at the Seahawk/Dolphin game in Miami in November 2008 where he attended college. Kennedy is still awaiting the call that makes him a Hall of Famer and until then he remains one of the best defensive linemen ever to suit up in Seahawk blue, green and gray.

Hawk096, How about Fredd Young and Rufus Porter?' Thanks! BT45

 

[Hawk096]

After playing for the Seahawks Rufus Porter and going to two Pro Bowls with the Seahawks he went to the Buccaneers and Saints. With the Bucs he started 10 games in 1997 in which they were the third ranked defense it was his final season in the NFL. After he left the Seahawks Porter never had as much success as he did in Seattle having just 3.5 sacks in three seasons (two with New Orleans and one in Tampa Bay). His son currently plays LB at Louisiana Tech and will be entering is freshman year.
