Seattle, WA- After it was said and done, Shaquem Griffin won in all aspects of America by showing what heart, stamina, dedication, and being motivated to overcome the obstacles that were in front of him to make it to the NFL.
On Thursday, Griffin signed his Rookie contract of 2.8 million within four years and a guaranteed of 300,000. One of his goals has been finalized with getting to the NFL, now comes the pressure and grit to see if he can make the 53 man roster, but a lot of players sees him fitting with the Seahawks. Head coach Pete Carroll praised him during the rookie minicamp. “He looked very comfortable, very natural,” Carroll told reporters. “He has a sense already for scheme and terminology. The position is the right spot for him, it looks like. We can be aggressive and use his speed.”
Griffon will probably catch on quick with the type of style that the Seahawks defensive plays because his twin brother is right there to mentor him, as well as the Seahawks players. It will be interesting to see how both of these players will improve and impact the newly structure defense.
