Almost all of the 68,000 fans had left the CenturyLink Field but the Palmdale, California, native had several of his teammates cheering him on and filming the happy event which took place on the Seahawks logo at the 50-yard line.

Dressed in black slacks and a blue checkered dress shirt, 25-year-old Shead got down on one knee and popped the question to his girlfriend who was wearing a Seahawks jersey.
