Quandre Diggs Pens Emotional Farewell To Seattle Seahawks
Five months after his release from the Seattle Seahawks, Quandre Diggs ended any chance for a delayed reunion on Sunday night when he signed a one-year deal worth up to $5 million with the Tennessee Titans.
Diggs, 31, first came to Seattle in a midseason trade with the Detroit Lions in 2019. In his four and a half seasons with the Seahawks, he became a fan favorite as he racked up 324 total tackles, 32 passes defended and 18 interceptions. He also earned three straight Pro Bowl selections from 2020-2022.
After being a cap casualty at the end of the 2023 season, the time came to say goodbye to Seattle, and Diggs made sure to leave a lasting impression.
“Have to thank God, my family, and the Seattle Seahawks organization,” Diggs wrote on Instagram. “These past 4 1/2 years have been some of the best years of my life. Played some of my best football, made lifelong friendships, learned how to win along the way, and most of all continued to add to my family.
“To the 12’s I just wanna say thank you for believing in me and letting me become a part of your family. To John and Pete thank you both for believing in me twice I know I’ve told you guys plenty of times but you really rescued me and showed me you can win and have fun playing the game. To all of my teammates, coaches, trainers, eq staff, media team, and etc I just want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart for helping me everyday be the best version of me.”
It won’t be long until the Seahawks see Diggs (and fellow safety Jamal Adams) again, as they travel to Nashville next week for joint practices ahead of a preseason matchup. Nonetheless, Diggs’ departure is an emotional one for all the 12s.

Knight, a five-time Olympian and captain of the United States team that won gold, will be out of the lineup for the Seattle Torrent indefinitely after sustaining a lower-body injury in Italy, the team announced Friday.
Knight had three goals and three assists for the U.S. at Milan Cortina including a goal in the 2-1 overtime win over Canada in the final. She has three goals and seven assists during the current PWHL season.

“While we’re eager to be at full strength and recognize the anticipation of Hilary’s return, we’re focused on putting her and our team in the best position for a playoff push,” Torrent general manager Meghan Turner said in a statement.
Minnesota Frost captain Coyne Schofield was placed on long-term injured reserve on Friday retroactive to Feb. 19 with an upper-body injury. Coyne Schofield scored three goals for the United States during the Olympics.
“I am incredibly proud of all our Frost Olympians who demonstrated true excellence on the world stage,” general manager Melissa Caruso said in a statement. “We are fully committed to supporting Kendall throughout her recovery, and our medical team will be working diligently to help her prepare for her return to the ice.”
The moves by the Torrent and Frost came a day after the Montreal Victoire announced that Ambrose has been placed on long-term injured reserve retroactive to Feb. 19 for a lower‑body injury suffered while representing Canada in the gold medal game. Ambrose had a pair of assists at the Olympics.
The Victoire’s Marie-Philip Poulin, Canada’s captain in Italy, was listed as day-to-day with an Olympics-related injury.
Victoire general manager Daniele Sauvageau said of the team’s Olympians “we are confident that they will be back in the lineup in the near future.”
