The Seattle Seahawks held another OTAs practice yesterday, but it was closed to the media. However, the team did have the grace to share a couple of video clips from their Wednesday practice, featuring a pair of rookies.
Watch here:

Witherspoon’s physicality is his biggest selling point, but here you see his ball skills on display. A tipped pick is still a pick and being in the right place at the right time never hurts when it comes to turnovers. During his time at Illinois, Witherspoon posted five interceptions and 25 passes defensed.
Today’s OTAs practice will be open to the media, so hopefully we’ll learn more about where Witherspoon is at. He’s been limited so far.

McIntosh is coming off a breakout Senior year at Georgia, having totaled 829 yards and 10 touchdowns as a rusher. His best path to playing time in Seattle may be as a pass-catcher, though. McIntosh also totaled 43 catches, over 500 yards and two touchdowns as a receiver last season. He’s expected to be part of the competition to replace Travis Homer as the team’s main third-down running back.
