Will Dissly (born July 8, 1996) is an American football tight end for the Seattle Seahawks of the National Football League (NFL). He played college football in the Pac-12 Conference for the Washington Huskies.[1] Dissly was Montana's Gatorade High School Player of the Year in 2013.[2]
High school
Born and raised in Bozeman, Montana, Dissly graduated from Bozeman High School in 2014. During his senior year, the Bozeman Hawks football team won the state championship.[3] He played on both sides of the ball, recording 57 tackles and 11 receiving touchdowns while being named Montana's Gatorade High School Player of the Year.[3] He originally committed to Boise State in December,[4] but then followed head coach Chris Petersen to Seattle to play at Washington.[5]
College career
After his sophomore season at Washington in 2015, he transitioned from defensive end to tight end.[1] His first reception, against Sacramento State, went for a 27-yard touchdown.[2] After garnering only four receptions as a junior, Dissly had 21 catches as a senior in 2017.[6] Most reports projected Dissly as a blocking tight end.[1][3][7]

2018
Dissly was selected by the Seattle Seahawks in the fourth round (120th overall) of the 2018 NFL Draft.[9][10] He quickly became a trusted target of quarterback Russell Wilson. In the season-opening 27–24 loss to the Denver Broncos, Dissly had three receptions for 105 yards and his first professional touchdown in his NFL debut.[11] He followed that up with three receptions for 42 yards and another touchdown in the Monday Night Football loss to the Chicago Bears in Week 2.[12] During Week 4 against the Cardinals in Arizona, Dissly was carted off the field with 7:52 left in the first quarter after a tackle by Cardinals' safety Antoine Bethea. Although the catch resulted in a 5-yard gain, Dissly's rookie season was cut short after suffering a patellar tendon injury, the same injury that had affected Jimmy Graham in 2015.[13]
2019
In Week 2 against the Pittsburgh Steelers, Dissly caught 5 passes for 50 yards and 2 touchdowns as the Seahawks won 28–26.[14] In Week 3 against the New Orleans Saints, Dissly caught 6 passes for 62 yards and a touchdown as time expired in the 33–27 loss.[15] In a Week 6 game against the Cleveland Browns, left the game with an Achilles injury.[16] He was later diagnosed with a torn Achilles and was placed on season-ending injured reserve on October 19, 2019.[17]
