Hawks meeting with LS

Written by Chris Sullivan | 23 July 2009

According to Danny O'Neil, the Seahawks are hosting former New Orleans Saints long snapper Kevin Houser for a visit this week. Houser was released earlier in the offseason. He is in town for a physical and a tryout with the team.

If signed, Houser will be the third long snapper on the roster (along with favorite and local boy Bryan Pittman and Ryan Senser). Last year's snapper, Jeff Robinson has retired (again), and as we reported a few weeks ago, 2008 Draftee Tyler Schmitt was released by the Seahawks after an undisclosed existing back injury was reagitated in camp last year. Based on Schmitt's facebook page, it appears the injury has effectively ended his career.

The Seahawks have been struggling to find a long term replacement to LS stand-out JP Darche who was lost in 2006 to a season-ending hip injury.

3 longsnappers? sounds like they're a little gun-shy after Boone Klutz...err...Stutz.

Is this the guy who was released by the saints after scamming money out of players and coaches for stocks?

Didn't Senser get released not that long ago? I don't see him on the roster.
