Tyler Lockett said goodbye to the only NFL team he's known on Wednesday after the longtime Seattle Seahhawks wide receiver was released.
Lockett, 32, was a 2015 third-round pick out of Kansas State by the Seahawks and has played all 10 of his NFL seasons in Seattle. He has missed only two regular-season games in his career and was a three-time All-Pro and 2015 Pro Bowler.

Over his decade in Seattle, Lockett recorded 8,594 receiving yards and 61 touchdowns. He owns eight franchise records, including most pass receptions in a season (100) and longest kick return (105 yards).
Lockett was due $17 million in salary this season, which included a $5.3 million roster bonus that was to be paid out on March 16. His salary cap hit was set to be $30 million for 2025 and the Seahawks were reportedly nearly $6 million over the cap ceiling ahead of the free agent market opening next week.
