Seattle Seahawks

Seattle Seahawks

I joined the Seattle Seahawks as a contracted writer in July 2020. My main role is to write the daily “Round-Up” article on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday each week. In addition to those three stories each week, I am available for extra work whenever it is needed. The extra work includes features and stories on team events held in the community. I also filled in for the Seahawks’ team reporter in November 2020 while he was on paternity leave. During that month, I was the full-time writer for the team from Monday-Wednesday each week. This included writing news stories, analysis pieces and press conference reactions, along with my usual Round-Ups.

This page includes a variety of stories from my time with the Seahawks — Round-Ups, features, community stories and more.

Just before the COVID-19 pandemic hit, Seattle-area hip-hop artist and entrepreneur Draze launched the Black Wealth Movement. It was an initiative for people to support Black-owned businesses, and he released the song "Building Black Wealth" in January. Later, Draze began "Building Black Wealth TV," where he interviews entrepreneurs and local Black business owners to highlight their work.

"This show is about taking a holistic view of the entrepreneurs in our community," Draze said.

The latest episode of "Building Black Wealth" was a Seahawks edition, with Draze interviewing Seahawks Legends about their post-football ventures and why all races should support Black businesses, among other things. In recognition of Black Business Month (August), the Seahawks decided to partner with Draze for the episode. Seahawks Legends Cliff Avril, Marcus Trufant, Justin Forsett and Jordan Babineaux joined Draze to discuss their business ventures and highlight a few local businesses.
