Former Lakes and UW Standout Jermaine Kearse Leaps, Grabs 37-Yard Pass In Seahawks Win

Kearse, a 6-foot-1, 209-pound receiver fighting for a spot on the roster, skied for the pass from Russell Wilson to bring Seattle inside Denver's 10-yard line.

DENVER-Lakewood's Jermaine Kearse size and jumping ability might get him a spot on the Seattle Seahawks roster this season.

The Lakes High product and unrestricted free agent from the University of Washington - who's fighting to make his way onto the Seahawks' receiver corps - hauled in a beautifully thrown, 37-yard pass down the middle of the field from Russell Wilson at the 5:38 mark in the fourth quarter Saturday in Denver.
