SEATTLE – The headline was certainly catchy.

SEATTLE – The Seahawks traded cornerback Michael Jackson to Carolina for linebacker Michael Barrett, the team announced Thursday morning.

Conceptually, the Falcons’ decision not to deploy Michael Penix Jr. in their second and third exhibition games makes sense. (He played five series in the first.) The worst that can happen in preseason is for a starting quarterback to get hurt, about which more later.

RENTON, Wash. – The Seattle Seahawks came one step closer to having their starting offensive line ready for the beginning of the season, as center Connor Williams made his practice debut Monday afternoon.

HENDERSON, Nev. – Gardner Minshew will be the Las Vegas Raiders’ starting quarterback in Week 1 of the 2024 season, coach Antonio Pierce announced Sunday.

NASHVILLE – The point of the joint practices the Seahawks held here Wednesday and Thursday against the Tennessee Titans was to get the starters a lot of work in a controlled setting and then take the weekend off.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. – During the Pete Carroll era, there tended to be a lot of subterfuge when it came to the Seahawks’ preseason plans. Even if all signs pointed to the starters playing little, if any, Carroll kept to his “Always Compete” mantra and generally kept his plans to himself.

LAS VEGAS – Gardner Minshew II packed up the van in March and headed out west, looking for another opportunity in a colorful NFL career that has already spanned four teams in six years.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. – The Seattle Seahawks expect their defense to be the best in the league.

NASHVILLE – The day began with some hearty hellos from current Seahawks to former teammates, and now Tennessee Titans, Quandre Diggs and Jamal Adams.

The Seahawks hit the road again Tuesday afternoon to head to Nashville where they will hold joint practices with the Titans on Wednesday and Thursday at Tennessee’s practice facility, and then play Tennessee in a preseason game Saturday at Nissan Stadium.

As the Seahawks officially announced the signing of veteran free agent center Connor Williams Sunday they also solved their potential log jam at center by trading Nick Harris back to Cleveland, where he spent the last four years.
