Watters rushed for over 1,200 Yards in each of his first three years in Seattle and was in the top ten in Yards from Scrimmage in all of those years. He could still get the ball in the end zone, punching it through 23 times in that time cluster. Watters suffered through injuries for most of 2001, but by that time, Shaun Alexander had arrived, and he retired shortly after.
While Watters was more known for his time in San Francisco and Philadelphia, his 5,489 Yards from Scrimmage in Seattle were more than he had in the other two teams (though he had more Touchdowns, as both a 49er and as an Eagle).

Ricky Watters was a Pro Bowl Selection in the first five years of his career, but none of that coincided with the four seasons that he played in Seattle. Watters may not have been a Pro Bowler when he played in the state of Washington, but this was still a very good Running Back.
