Report: Seahawks attempting to trade Kearse

The Seattle Seahawks are attempting to trade wide receiver Jermaine Kearse, sources told ESPN's Dianna Russini.

Seattle signed Kearse as an undrafted free agent in 2012 and the 27-year-old has developed into a key part of its passing game. He was part of the Seahawks' lone Super Bowl victory in franchise history during the 2013 season.

It's likely the Seahawks view Paul Richardson and Tyler Lockett as more valuable pieces entering the 2017 season, rendering Kearse expendable.

Kearse caught 41 passes for 510 yards and a touchdown in 2016.

If Kearse is traded, he'll likely be remembered fondly by Seahawks fans. He caught the game-winning touchdown in overtime against the Green Bay Packers during the 2014 NFC Championship game, and recorded one of the greatest catches in Super Bowl history against the New England Patriots. On the same drive, however, Russell Wilson was intercepted by Malcolm Butler, securing a victory for the Patriots.
