With the Seahawks’ 2022 season on the books, former NFL linebacker Dave Wyman reflects on some of his favorite plays from the year.
The one that really stood out for Wyman was a play rookie cornerback Tariq Woolen made in a Week 5 win over the Detroit Lions.
Woolen was a ballhawk for the Seahawks in 2022, recording six interceptions and breaking up a number of passes as he earned Pro Bowl honors despite being a fifth-round rookie pick.
One of those six picks came to Detroit early in the second half, and that interception was of the pick-6 variety as Woolen raced through the Lions’ offense to score his first NFL touchdown.
