Playing what he knows could have been his last game with the Seahawks, Tyler Lockett showed who he was with a clutch catch, as well as a selfless postgame moment.

Seattle has employed a rotating selection of team captains for each game, highlighting different players for different reasons. The potential final game for a franchise legend such as Lockett is good enough reason to make him one.

Receiver Tyler Lockett might not be back with the Seahawks next season, but he made sure to bask in what could be the final game after 10 years with the team.

If that happens, Lockett will officially close the book on one of the greatest careers by a wideout in franchise history. His time in Seattle won’t have a storybook finish, but it will end in quintessential Lockett fashion, with him trying to help the Seahawks win, however he can.

Lockett has been a great receiver and teammate all along, but his role has shrunk a lot this season and the Seahawks can save $17 million in cap space by cutting him. That means there's a really good chance Lockett will wind up a cap casualty in March. However, it doesn't necessarily mean he's done playing.

With declining stats and a big salary-cap number next season, Sunday's game could be the last with the Seahawks for Tyler Lockett. It wouldn't be an acrimonious split.

Week 18 could mark Tyler Lockett's final game as a Seahawk, but he plans to continue playing in 2025. More at Pro Football Rumors.
