2nd year RB Chris Carson trying to elude the hands of defenders (in particular, DE Marcus Smith) in touch football.


CB Neiko Thorpe (who has played mostly special teams) in coverage against WR Tyler Lockett and possibly in position for an INT.


Rookie QB Alex McGough getting the football off with free agent DT signing Tom Johnson in pursuit. Good to see that free agent OL signing D.J. Fluker is getting some run at right guard. Fluker had been dealing with a knee sprain. Coach Solari says Fluker will have to compete to earn the starting job there.


2nd year WR David Moore skying high for a potential one-handed reception in front of S Bradley McDougald.


All-Pro MLB Bobby Wagner makes the defensive calls. Looks like 2nd year DT Nazair Jones is lined up over C Justin Britt.


New OC Brian Schottenheimer has been highly active during practice, correctly details between plays, which is a departure from the previous Seahawks OC.


Free agent WR signing Brandon Marshall is gleaning something from the practice referee.


Free agent SLB/LEO DE signing Barkevious Mingo in a three-point stance.


RB Mike Davis, a six-game starter last season, could be left fighting for a roster spot or playing time.


WR Keenan Reynolds, who looks a bit like Doug Baldwin here, extends for a catch. Reynolds was on the Washington Redskins practice squad last season.


2nd year CB Shaquill Griffin takes a breather.

Thanks for posting. Starting to get pretty excited again.

Summary of notes:
https://www.seattletimes.com/sports/sea ... -and-more/

Per Condotta, D.J. Fluker is still sitting out practices due to his knee ailment. Not sure what I saw in the photo above. 2nd year OL Jordan Roos has been taking the reps at right guard. George Fant is also out but is mimicking reps at RT. So the first team OL looked like LT Brown, LG Pocic, C Britt, RG Roos, and RT Ifedi.

Brandon Marshall is also being held out of team drills.

Chris Carson has been taking the first reps in the tailback rotation.

Earl Thomas, Frank Clark, and Byron Maxwell are all still skipping OTAs. Bradley McDougald was back today at safety, after missing a practice due to a personal issue. 2nd year S Delano Hill got the reps with the first team, alongside McDougald, with Earl Thomas out. It's not clear whether McDougald was playing mostly free or strong safety. Previous reports had McDougald practicing at FS.

In addition to missing Clark (due to choice), the defensive line was missing Jarran Reed, Dion Jordan, Quinton Jefferon, and Shamar Stephen due to injuries. The DL was composed of Branden Jackson, Nazair Jones, Tom Johnson, and Marcus Smith.

K Sebastian Janikowski is still out with a hip injury, leaving Jason Myers to take the kicking reps.

To clarify, I think I messed up this photo. Looks like (possibly) UDFA rookie Skyler Phillips taking 2nd team reps at RG with (maybe) Isaiah Battle at RT. Joey Hunt could be playing center.

Wagner attacking the bags with some swim and rip moves. He said today that he hopes new DC Ken Norton, Jr. will blitz more often.


Another awesome photo of Wagner going through drills with Coach Norton yelling in the background.


Bag down! Bag down!

Man Brown looks like an absolute monster. Really hope the transcends this year.
