We’re precisely two weeks away from the Seattle Seahawks’ preseason opener towards the Minnesota Vikings, and I’m positive many are keen to observe rookies Devon Witherspoon (assuming he indicators his contract by then), Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Zach Charbonnet, Derick Corridor, and others in stay motion for the primary time. That is the third 12 months of getting solely three exhibitions, a far cry from the half-dozen groups used to play within the Nineteen Seventies.
In current seasons we’ve seen a change in preseason mentality, the place first-team regulars play much less regularly than ever earlier than. Many star quarterbacks get, at most, 1 / 4’s price of preseason play out of a most of 12 (or 16 for many who play the Corridor of Fame Recreation). It’ll be attention-grabbing to see how the Seahawks deal with Geno Smith’s enjoying time subsequent month, now that he’s the undisputed primary starter.
Getting again on matter… I clearly have a job to take action I watch each Seahawks preseason recreation from begin to end, aside from the 2021 season after I needed to cowl a Manny Pacquiao combat and missed a lot of the Broncos recreation. Even earlier than I began writing for Area Gulls I often watched into the second halves of each exhibition, and would tune out if the end result was already determined a method or one other.
I used to observe different nationally televised preseason motion for various lengths of time, however now YouTube takes care of catching me up on something attention-grabbing.
How a lot of Seahawks preseason do you often watch? And are you the kind to have a peek at different groups’ preseason motion?
