Seahawks receiver Tory Horton hopes to pick up where he left off after 2025 season cut short
Horton missed the second half of last season after shin surgery and is now back as Seattle prepares for its opener, with five receiving touchdowns as a rookie.
- Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Tory Horton returned to full participation in training camp six days into the schedule after recovering from shin surgery. Head coach Mike Macdonald cleared him for field work progression.
- Following leg surgery with a metal rod insertion in February, Horton missed the second half of last season while managing a crack in his shin bone. He said Friday, "I felt like I let the team down a bit, not being able to go back out there as much as I wanted."
- During his rookie campaign, Horton recorded five receiving touchdowns plus one return score, including a 95 yards punt return for a touchdown. The 6-foot-2, 196 pounds receiver demonstrated a nose for the end zone developed at Colorado State.
- Competing in a crowded receiver room alongside Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Cooper Kupp, and Rashid Shaheed, Horton is learning a new scheme under offensive coordinator Brian Fleury. He said the system resembles current Las Vegas Raiders head coach Klint Kubiak's approach.
- The Seahawks open their season against the reigning AFC champion New England Patriots on Sept. 9, with Horton working to earn quarterback Sam Darnold's confidence. The team is entrusting him to build on his rookie performance.
