The Seahawks have suffered a seemingly endless amount of injuries to their WR corps. So many that Matt Hasselbeck used the phrase "go-to wide receiver" to describe Billy McMullen.
A week ago, Billy McMullen was hanging out with his wife in Richmond, Va,, working out and wondering if any NFL teams might still seek his services.
Now he's the Seahawks "go-to receiver," in the words of quarterback Matt Hasselbeck, a primary figure in Mike Holmgren's passing game. Which tells you more about the Seahawks' dire straits than McMullen's qualifications.
"I hadn't really planned on using Billy at all, unless an emergency took place," said Holmgren, who met McMullen on Wednesday and began working him into the offense primarily on scout team duties. "But an emergency took place."
After missing all of 2007, McMullen's making the most of an opportunity. But can the luck get any worse for the Seahawks?
