By and large, the initial waves of free agency have come and gone. Now, teams are gearing up in full force for the 2024 NFL draft. Such is the case for the Seattle Seahawks, who have taken a trip to Ann Arbor, Michigan.
The reigning National Champions, the Michigan Wolverines, are hosting their annual pro day for their NFL prospects. In attendance are coaching representatives for the Seahawks.
PRO-DAY UPDATE: Only fitting that national champs @UMichFootball, with record 18 Combine invitees, have biggest NFL turnout for pro-day.

Seattle’s offensive coordinator Ryan Grubb made the trek to Michigan. He was joined by offensive line coach Scott Huff and linebackers coach Josh Bynes. Interestingly, head coach Mike Macdonald was not there. Seeing as though he was previously defensive coordinator for the Wolverines, his absence is at the very least notable.
Still, having top assistants there does mean quite a bit, especially when one is the man in total control of the offense.
The biggest name is of course quarterback JJ McCarthy, whom the Seahawks have met with. By nature of them acquiring Sam Howell via trade, it seems unlikely McCarthy will end up in Seattle. But then again, this is the NFL, and nothing is ever truly impossible.
