Well, good news, you’re in the right place.
I’ve done some research and have found players who played on both the Raiders and Seahawks.
Marshawn Lynch
Marshawn Lynch, famously known as “Beast Mode,” had a prominent career, primarily with the Seattle Seahawks and Buffalo Bills. Selected by the Bills in the first round of the 2007 NFL Draft, Lynch had a decent start to his career but truly flourished after being traded to the Seahawks in 2010.
His bruising running style earned him five Pro Bowl selections, and he led the league in rushing touchdowns twice. Lynch’s iconic 67-yard “Beast Quake” touchdown run in the 2011 playoffs against the New Orleans Saints is considered one of the best runs in NFL history.
Over his career, Lynch accumulated 10,413 rushing yards and scored 85 rushing touchdowns. Finally, he helped lead the Seahawks to their first Super Bowl victory in Super Bowl XLVIII.

Jerry Rice
Jerry Rice is widely regarded as one of the greatest wide receivers, if not the greatest, in the history of the NFL. After playing college football at Mississippi Valley State, Rice was drafted by the San Francisco 49ers with the 16th overall pick in the first round of the 1985 NFL Draft.
During his 16 seasons with the 49ers, Rice was instrumental in the team’s dynasty years, helping them secure three Super Bowl titles. His partnership with Montana and later with Steve Young produced one of the most successful offensive eras in NFL history.
Rice set numerous receiving records, many of which still stand today, including most career receptions, receiving yards, and total touchdowns. Rice’s work ethic and dedication to the game are legendary. He was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2010 in his first year of eligibility.

T.J. Houshmandzadeh
T.J. Houshmandzadeh was selected in the seventh round, 204th overall, by the Cincinnati Bengals in the 2001 NFL Draft. During his 11-year NFL career, Houshmandzadeh played for the Bengals, Seahawks, Ravens, and Raiders. His best season came in 2007 with the Bengals, when he recorded 112 receptions for 1,143 yards and 12 touchdowns.
Houshmandzadeh was also named to the Pro Bowl in 2007, highlighting a season in which he tied for the NFL lead in receptions.
Known for his reliable hands and precise route-running, Houshmandzadeh developed a strong on-field connection in Cincinnati with quarterback Carson Palmer, forming a dynamic duo with fellow wide receiver Chad Johnson.
