It was an interesting offseason for veteran guard Gabe Jackson.
First, it was reported that the Las Vegas Raiders would release Jackson to free up salary cap space, but instead of that happening, the Raiders and Seahawks worked out a deal that sent him to Seattle in exchange for a fifth-round pick.
And while Jackson wasn't sure what his future held heading into the offseason, he's excited about where he landed once the dust had settled.
"All I know is I'm excited to join the 12s and meet my other brothers," Jackson said from Starkville, Mississippi on a video call with Seattle reporters, adding he's excited about, "the team, the players that I know are there, the coaching staff, the fan base, the 12s. I remember playing against them and how loud it gets there. They win. I want to be a part of an organization that's like that."
After spending his first seven seasons with the Raiders, where he started 99 out of 100 games played, Jackson is looking forward to fresh start for the first time in his NFL career.
"It almost feels like draft day, I feel like I'm a rookie all over again," he said. "I get to go somewhere and meet new people, and just start over."
