Seahawks LB K.J. Wright Proposes to Girlfriend After Tour of Boeing Factory

On Tuesday, Seattle Seahawks linebacker K.J. Wright popped the question to his girlfriend after taking her and her family on a tour of the Boeing Everett factory.

According to Bob Condotta of the Seattle Times, the hard-hitting Wright wanted to do something special without copying teammate DeShawn Shead, who proposed on the field last year after Week 3's overtime win against the Denver Broncos.

So…airplanes, huh?

Exactly:

"

Wright said his girlfriend’s father is a big fan of airplanes so he wanted to incorporate that into the day. He said an initial idea of flying a banner with the proposal didn’t work out.

Instead, he arranged for his girlfriend’s family to accompany him on the tour of the Boeing facility.

“I was like, ‘We should take your daddy there’ and then I proposed to her at the end,” Wright said. “I was like, ‘We are just going on a tour with your pops and that’s it.’ And then I did it at the end.”

After getting what teammates, coaches and many fans felt was a Pro Bowl snub, Wright’s day worked out well.
