Star players often capture the spotlight around the NFL. This is especially true this time of year when many standout players receive massive contract extensions, suffer injuries or run into off-the-field trouble.
But every year, we also witness plenty of unproven, promising young playmakers step out of the shadows and make a name for themselves with a breakout season.
Some of these guys were merely backups or barely even played the previous year (if they saw the field at all), while others were full-fledged starters who just haven’t quite reached their immense potential.
Admittedly, we probably had a tougher time coming up with our list of 2015 breakout candidates for the Seahawks than we did for any other team in the league. The main reason is because the team is built and coached so well and already has so many proven, emerging young superstars, particularly on defense.
Seattle has an established franchise quarterback, elite running back, elite tight end and arguably the strongest secondary and group of starting linebackers in the NFL today. So we really had to dig deep to discover the five players who could be poised to break out for the Seahawks.
You can probably correctly guess a couple of the players on this list. But can you predict all of them?
While you contemplate the potential candidates, check out a series of interesting videos related to the Seahawks.
