Some fans may brush off the Seahawks acquisition of J.J. Arcega-Whiteside as a free look for a couple of weeks. But johnpgilbertnfl says don’t be surprised if Arcega-Whiteside’s skillset keeps him around on the 53 man roster into the regular season.
Whether the Hawks list him as a tight end or as a receiver, though, the role Arcega-Whiteside is likely to play probably won’t be much different. Specifically, after getting buried on the depth chart in Philly, to the point where he played just 311 offensive snaps over the past two seasons, a move to special teams helped him carve out a role.
On special teams Arcega-Whiteside logged 229 snaps during the 2021 season, after seeing the field for just 20 such snaps over his first two seasons in the league and also filled a depth role at receiver. He certainly has not been much of a receiving threat during his career, with just sixteen receptions through his first three years in the league, including only two during 2021.
So, thinking about it from the perspective of Arcega-Whiteside as a tight end/receiver who can line up wide, in the slot or on the end of the line and contribute to the running game, while also offering significant contributions on special teams, and it’s not hard to see why Pete Carroll would be tempted to make this move.
Thus, putting it all together, the Seahawks traded away a nickel cornerback on an expiring contract - who it appeared had already lost his starting role to rookie Coby Bryant - for a run blocking specialist who can also offer significant contributions on special teams.
