Carroll: Gerald Everett will be "real threat" in 2021
Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll spoke very highly of the team's free agent signee Gerald Everett.
"This is I think the fanciest, sweetest-looking receiver/tight end mix that we’ve had," Carroll told 710 ESPN. "[Everett's] like a wide receiver, he’s got terrific after-the-catch run ability, really aggressive and he’s a good blocker, too, and he knows the system inside and out. What Gerald brings us is a real threat in the throwing game. Should be a big factor on third down.” Seattle has been known to struggle getting production out of the tight end position in recent years, but it seems as though the offense will make a concerted effort to get Everett targets throughout the 2021 campaign.
Our models currently project Everett for 39.62 catches on 62.60 targets for 395.38 yards and 4.12 touchdowns.
