Tied together

Several Seahawks have connections with the Saints or Louisiana, the home state of this weekend’s playoff opponent. Check them out:

• Wideout Brandon Stokley grew up in Lafayette, La., and attended Louisiana-Lafayette.
• J.P. Losman was a record-setting quarterback at Tulane in New Orleans.
• Rookie long snapper Clint Gresham was signed as a free agent by the Saints after the 2010 draft before being cut (and then claimed by the Seahawks) in July.
• Newly signed practice squad running back Andre Anderson is a rookie out of Tulane.
