After signing with the team as an undrafted free agent, Jack Westover is hoping to stay in Washington as a member of the Seahawks.
Jack Westover, who was third on the Washington Huskies in receptions in their historic 2023 campaign that ended in a National Championship loss to the Michigan Wolverines, signed an undrafted free agent contract with the Seahawks, who need tight end help more than most. On top of that, he's once again working with Ryan Grubb, who moved over to the NFL after being the Huskies' offensive coordinator last year.
Transforming from a walk-on into a valuable piece of a national championship runner-up in Montlake, Westover had 77 grabs over the last two seasons at Washington, and he could prove to be extremely valuable if Noah Fant, the Seahawks' other prominent receiving tight end, goes down with an injury or underperforms.
Westover still has an uphill battle to make the roster as an undrafted free agent, especially after the team invested a fourth-round pick in AJ Barner, but given his familiarity with Grubb and the Seahawks need for another pass-catching tight end, he's got a shot to be among the few non-draft rookies to make his team out of training camp.Jeremy Brener is an editor, writer and social media manager for several Fan Nation websites.
