Homegrown Seahawk Excited to Play This Sunday

Former Washington Husky Jermaine Kearse says he’s ready for any and all action that might come his way in the Seahawks’ game against the Vikings on Sunday.

“It’s a dream come true to finally get my chance,” Kearse said today.  “I’m just going to try to do my best in any way I can to help the team succeed.”

Kearse is now playing for the NFL team he grew up watching in Lakewood, in the stadium his college team is sharing with the Seahawks this season.

“It’s like I can’t get out of Washington,” Kearse said. “But I’m happy to be here. I’m very fortunate and blessed to be here. Not too many people get to live their whole life in the state and then play for a professional team in their state.”

You can listen to the Seahawks and the Vikings this Sunday at 11 a.m. on AM 1280 and FM 99.3 Newstalk KIT.
