The Seattle Seahawks had a little fun during their team meeting when Will Ferrell crashed the party. Ferrell — pretending to be Greg Olsen — happened to crash into their zoom call.

Everyone was getting ready to meet Olsen through the call, but when he popped onto the screen it was instead Ferrell. He had fun with his couple of minutes on the call. He lifted up his shirt to show off his body of a 36-year-old, of course poking a little fun at Olsen. He also talked about drawing up a special play called the “90-go-flywheel Kanye Starburst” Olsen was shown after the skit laughing at Ferrell's antics.
Ferrell attended USC and has been friendly with Pete Carroll since he was in charge of the Trojans football team.
Olsen signed a one-year deal with the Seahawks. Olsen said after signing with the squad, he couldn't pass up a chance to play in Seattle with Russell Wilson.
“It was just too good of an opportunity to pass up,” Olsen said. “Their track record of success, consistency of winning. I’ve played in this city many times, and just the fanbase, the excitement, that stadium is one of the more unique venues in all of sports. And obviously Coach [Pete] Carroll, playing with somebody like Russell, it just checks so many boxes I was looking for.”
Wilson loves to keep his tight ends involved so Olsen should have plenty of chances to catch the ball as long as he stays healthy. Maybe if Olsen helps the Seahawks win the Super Bowl, Ferrell will need to get his own float in the Super Bowl parade.
