Seahawks' Lucas, Nwosu Honored for Comebacks

0:00On April 7th, the Seattle Seahawks just snagged their second Super Bowl title ever, first one since the 2013-14 run by dominating Super Bowl 60 over the Patriots. They shocked everyone coming into the 2025 season as underdogs, but now they're the top picks to repeat in 2026. To celebrate, the team dropped their annual awards spotlighting the stars who made it happen. Diving deeper, they kicked things off with comeback player of the year, going to write tackle Abraham Lucas. The guy battled brutal knee injuries that sidelined him for most of 2023 and 2024, missing 21 of 34, games total. Lucas bounced back huge after signing a three year, 46 million dollar extension keeping him locked in through 2028. He started all 17 regular season games, plus the three playoff ones, logging every single offensive snap at 1061 to shield. Quarterback Sam Darnellt blindside perfectly.

1:00Fans and analysts are buzzing about how his return stabilized the line, turning potential weaknesses into strengths that fueled the whole offense. It shows the grit that defined this squad's rise from doubters to champs. Meanwhile, Ed's Russia Ushenan Nuolsa earned honorable mention after his own injury plague stretch, playing just 12 games over those prior two. In 2025, he suited up for 16 games with 11 starts, wrecking up 35 tackles, seven for loss, three past deflections, and seven sacks to anchor the league's best defensive front. With moves like that anchoring the past rush, Seattle's defense was unstoppable, setting the stage for another red next year.
