The Seattle Seahawks signed rookie Tight End Elijah Arroyo to a four-year $8.13 million contract on Friday. Arroyo’s deal includes $6.872 million fully guaranteed at signing. He was drafted No. 50 overall in April’s NFL Draft out of the University of Miami. He had 35 receptions, 590 receiving yards, and 7 receiving touchdowns during his final year in college. How will he fare with the Seahawks during his rookie campaign?
Seattle Seahawks Season Outlook
The Seattle Seahawks are entering a new era in 2025. They traded away Wide Receiver D.K. Metcalf and released franchise cornerstone Tyler Lockett. Seattle also traded away Quarterback Geno Smith. Seattle revamped its offense this offseason by signing Quarterback Sam Darnold and former Super Bowl MVP Cooper Kupp. Arroyo’s will serve as Seattle’s reserve tight end behind Noah Fant. Arroyo will look to be a contributor to the Seahawks in 2025.
Final Thoughts
Arroyo will look to hit the ground running in training camp with his contract situation behind him. He has been drafted in a great spot for a young player. The Seattle Seahawks are always in the playoff picture. That should be the case again this season.
