Seattle Seahawks training camp made its way from team headquarters in Renton to Lumen Field for the annual Football Fan Fest. It was a busy day already in SoDo due to the Seattle Mariners’ day game against the Texas Rangers, so it was possible to double dip and head from T-Mobile Park to Lumen Field for a full Saturday afternoon of sports.
The Seahawks practiced for about 90 minutes in front of a lively, family-friendly crowd. Like last year, this was not a mock game akin to what fans were accustomed to seeing under Pete Carroll. However, we did see a lot of situational 11-on-11 drills and game-like simulations in pads, so that should more than suffice.
Myself, Brandon Cain, Bryce Coutts, and Dan Viens were all in attendance for this scrimmage and we recorded a video with our instant analysis before we went out to a lovely dinner on the waterfront. You’ll have to forgive us for the audio quality because, well, we’re filming outside the stadium and that’s not exactly a quiet place. This was also recorded before any injury updates from Mike Macdonald.
A more thorough write-up of training camp will be up on shortly after this goes live, but in the meantime I think you’ve got the attention span to watch a 14-minute video! We assess how well the quarterbacks looked, the offensive line combinations, which players stood out/struggled, and of course we have to zero in on some of the higher profile rookies. I think you’ll appreciate Bryce’s eagle-eyed observation regarding Christian Haynes, which is why we haven’t been seeing him in team drills.
