Seahawks rookie is quietly earning a bigger role entering Week 1

The Seattle Seahawks can expect big rewards from their low-round draft pick. I wouldn't be at all surprised to see him steal significant snaps in Week 1.

When John Schneider took this player in the 2025 draft, the pick was generally acclaimed as a major steal for Seattle. He was considered to be a Day 2 selection, so falling to the final day was a gift for the Seahawks. The fact that he can fill not one role, but two, is a huge bonus.

As with many players entering the draft, injuries played a role in his fall.
