Joining the Seahawks in free agency, Sam Darnold has kicked off the process adjusting to a receiving corps with no players that he has thrown to previously, quickly building chemistry with Cooper Kupp and a new-look group in OTAs.

In a nice change of pace, Abraham Lucas isn’t having to sweat out a lengthy rehab process this spring, while the Seahawks new starting quarterback continues to strengthen his connection with new receivers and centers during OTAs.

With two of the biggest stars in franchise history now gone, the Seahawks will start anew at receiver with several quality veterans and a pair of incoming draft picks set to duke it out for reps behind Jaxon Smith-Njigba and Cooper Kupp this spring.
