Report: Seahawks continue DL churn, sign NCAA kick return TD record holder

One of the key questions for fans and observers through the offseason for the Seattle Seahawks was how the team would address the front seven on defense, specifically a defensive line that was regularly gashed throughout the 2022 season. For the most part, the answer to that question was to completely overhaul the position group, with the top four players by snap count - Poona Ford, Quinton Jefferson, Shelby Harris and Al Woods - all allowed to sign elsewhere.

Then training camp started, and the strategy moved from overhaul to churning through players in the position group at a rate that fans have not seen in quite some time, potentially since the 2010 season and Pete Carroll and John Schneider’s first year in the Pacific Northwest.
