Heeding the call from coach Mike Macdonald, the Seahawks rebounded nicely on offense in Tuesday’s second padded practice behind excellent efforts from reserve running backs vying for the third down role.

The Seattle Seahawks have the sixth-most cap space in the NFL, but seemingly nothing to spend it on. Here are some options for the team as training camp pushes on.

Busting out the pads for the first time in nearly eight months, several members of the Seahawks’ latest draft class stood out, while their newest elder statesman showed he has packs plenty of punch in year No. 12.

Lost for the season, the Seahawks placed Kenny McIntosh on injured reserve, replacing him on the roster with one of college football’s most prolific punt returners from last season.

One of the biggest surprises for the Seahawks a year ago, Tyrice Knight believes he’s just getting started and playing next to Ernest Jones for a full season will help unlock his full potential in Mike Macdonald’s defense.

Likely ending his season before it even began, the Seahawks already have taken a massive hit in the backfield with Kenny McIntosh succumbing to a knee injury at Saturday’s fourth training camp practice.

Two of the top young players on the Seahawks defense, veterans aren’t being secretive about their expectations for Byron Murphy II and Derick Hall, while the receiving corps may have fewer spots up for grabs than anticipated in the early stages of training camp.

A beacon of versatility and consistency between the lines who commands the respect of coaches and teammates, Jalen Sundell has quietly forced his way into not just one, but two competitions for starting jobs on the Seahawks offensive line entering his sophomore season.

Continuing to be dialed in to start their first training camps with the Seahawks, Sam Darnold and Cooper Kupp led the show as several receivers stood out during the team’s second session at the VMAC.

While the Seahawks will have the vast majority of their key players on defense back from last season, it was a veteran newcomer who had all eyes gravitating towards him as the team kicked off their 50th training camp.

Returning the vast majority of their starters and key reserves from last season, the Seahawks will have heightened expectations on defense in year two under Mike Macdonald. But plenty of questions remain for the unit heading into camp.

Winds of change blew through Seattle this offseason with the Seahawks changing quarterbacks and offensive coordinators among other moves, leaving no shortage of questions regarding what to expect from the unit this upcoming season.

Speculated as a cap casualty prior to free agency in March, the Seahawks opted to keep Noah Fant, suggesting they had a role in mind for him in Klint Kubiak’s offense. So why is he suddenly leaving town two days before training camp?

Wanting to establish a more physical, balanced offensive attack, the Seahawks will be turning back the clock by utilizing a true fullback in 2025. Will Robbie Ouzts emerge as the favorite to excel in the role for Klint Kubiak’s scheme?

Quickly turning into a fan favorite with an unexpected preseason star turn last summer, Jamie Sheriff has tried his hands at adding off-ball linebacker to his resume this offseason. Will that help his cause pursuing a spot on the 53?

Looking back at 49 years as a franchise, which games stand out as the best for the Seahawks? Headlining No. 40-31, Doug Baldwin’s heroics against Pittsburgh in a shootout in 2015 belongs among the franchise’s best efforts.

Formerly bullying opponents at Oregon State before taking his talents to Miami, Damien Martinez found immense success at multiple stops in college. Thrust into a loaded running back room, can he do it again with the Seahawks in Klint Kubiak’s system?

Few teams have invested more in the running back position than the Seahawks have in the past four years, but the on-field results haven’t matched those investments. The onus will fall on a new coaching staff and scheme to bring out the best in Ken Walker III and company in 2025.

A preseason darling the past two years, Mike Morris hasn’t been able to replicate his stellar production in regular season games for the Seahawks. Will his be able to turn the corner in his third season in the Pacific Northwest?

Becoming the first player selected 35th overall to net a fully-guaranteed rookie contract, the Seahawks will have uber-athletic safety Nick Emmanwori back on the field well before the first full squad training camp practice.
