The Disappearance of the Legion: How the Seahawks Lost Their Defensive Stars

Two years after that Super Bowl, the Seahawks began to see how their stars began to disappear. The first of them was Kam Chancellor, one of the members of the wonderful secondary school known as the “Legion of Boom.” In the week 10 game, when they visited the Arizona Cardinals, Chancellor suffered a neck injury. About a month later the Seahawks placed him on injured reserve. Chancellor sat out the entire 2018 season due to that injury in Arizona and never played in the NFL again.

That week 10 game also had another injury: Richard Sherman, another member of the Legion of Boom, suffered an Achilles tendon injury and had to leave the field of play in the third quarter. Sherman did not return to play that season and was released by Seattle after the season.

So that day in November 2017, both Kam Chancellor and Richard Sherman played their last game as members of the Seattle Seahawks in Arizona.

The following year the Seahawks returned to Arizona, now in week 4. The memory of that duel where they lost Kam Chancellor and Richard Sherman was still valid, and it was completely incredible that in that same stadium Earl Thomas, another member of the Legion of the Boom, he got hurt. Thomas, who had been absent from the entire preseason seeking a new contract or being traded, “said goodbye” to his head coach with an obscene gesture while he was being taken off the field, and did not play again that season. The following year Thomas signed with the Ravens.
