Pull an 'Uncle Rico' and get fined in Seahawks' TE room

RENTON, Wash. -- If you're a Seattle Seahawks tight end, you'd better not let anyone catch you reliving your high-school glory days.

Or wearing your college team's gear.

Or flaunting an expensive new purchase.

Those are just a few of the fineable offenses in the position group's kangaroo court, a tradition that third-year tight end Nick Vannett is upholding following the free-agent departures of Jimmy Graham and Luke Willson. Vannett isn't sure exactly when it started, just that it predates his arrival as a third-round pick in 2016 out of Ohio State.
