The Seattle Seahawks continued their training camp on Tuesday with their second day of padded practice. It\u2019s <\/p>\n
Let\u2019s get to the Day 6 recap!<\/p>\n
News<\/p>\n
Seahawks<\/strong><\/a> swap out interior defensive linemen<\/strong><\/p>\n Get used to non-injury related roster churn over the next several weeks. Nose tackle Justin Rogers was waived on Tuesday, with former Harvard and Louisville defensive tackle Thor Griffith taking his spot. Griffith was an FCS All-American selection at Harvard and recorded three sacks in his lone season with the Louisville Cardinals.<\/p>\n Notes and Quotes<\/p>\n A better day for the offense<\/strong><\/p>\n After Mike Macdonald showing obvious displeasure with the offense on Monday, the main storyline to watch was how well the offense would respond in Day 2 of padded practices. It looks like the message was heard loud and clear from the first-team through the third-teamers.<\/p>\n Offense starting practice faster today, as Mike Macdonald wanted. All three units scored TDs in quick red zone drill \u2014 AJ Barner catch, George Holani and Damien Martinez runs. <\/p>\n Then Sam Darnold dropped a 35yd deep ball to JSN (vs Jobe) in next team period .<\/p>\n \u2014 Dugar, Michael-Shawn (@MikeDugar) July 29, 2025<\/a>\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n Tory Horton just caught a long ball on Nehemiah Pritchett in 7 on 7. Drew Lock made the throw.<\/p>\n \u2014 Dugar, Michael-Shawn (@MikeDugar) July 29, 2025<\/a>\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n …But it wasn\u2019t all domination for the offense<\/strong><\/p>\n I believe this is Drew Lock\u2019s first training camp interception, and it was caught by a roster bubble corner in Nehemiah Pritchett. It was a difficult rookie season for Pritchett in limited playing time, so any positive moments he can have in camp, preseason, and in the film room will be crucial as far as staying on the roster.<\/p>\n Nehemiah Pritchett just picked off Drew Lock, who threw across the field to MVS.<\/p>\n \u2014 Dugar, Michael-Shawn (@MikeDugar) July 29, 2025<\/a>\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n A.J. Finley also picked off rookie Jalen Milroe.<\/p>\n AJ Finley just picked off Jalen Milroe in 7 on 7. Milroe was trying to hit an in-breaker over middle.<\/p>\n \u2014 Dugar, Michael-Shawn (@MikeDugar) July 29, 2025<\/a>\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n The first sign of training camp chippiness!<\/strong><\/p>\n As the practices get more physical, typically you\u2019ll get some training camp skirmishes, scuffles, and shoving matches. It didn\u2019t take too long for that to materialize, with Anthony Bradford and rookie Jared Ivey getting into it. <\/p>\n 1-on-1 pass-rush drill in #Seahawks<\/a> camp day 6, full go: Rookie 1st-rd pick LG Grey Zabel, best day yet. Stops Mike Morris, then Byron Murphy.<\/p>\n RG Anthony Bradford throws down LB Jared Ivey, Ivey goes at him, then they grab each other\u2019s helmets. Teammates swarm, then separated<\/p>\n \u2014 Gregg Bell (@gbellseattle) July 29, 2025<\/a>\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n A big day for Dareke Young<\/strong><\/p>\n With the Seahawks drafting two wide receivers and signing Marquez Valdes-Scantling, Dareke Young\u2019s future on the roster looks fairly shaky. The third-year player from Lenoir-Rhyne had a few bright spots throughout Tuesday\u2019s practice.<\/p>\n Dareke Young has several good catches today. <\/p>\n \u2014 Deep ball in 1 on 1 for a TD from Drew Lock. \u2014 Dugar, Michael-Shawn (@MikeDugar) July 29, 2025<\/a>\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n 3 notable Seahawks not at practice<\/strong><\/p>\n Shaquill Griffin is reportedly going to return to practice later this week after leaving due to a personal matter. Ernest Jones IV is also out due to a personal matter. Running back Kenneth Walker III didn\u2019t practice but no indication that it was injury-related. Mike Macdonald wasn\u2019t available for post-practice questions.<\/p>\n Grey Zabel talks about \u2018big brother\u2019 Charles Cross<\/strong><\/p>\n The Seahawks\u2019 offensive line issues have put a greater spotlight on first-round pick Grey Zabel, who will hopefully be one of the cornerstones of Seattle\u2019s line for years to come. As the projected starting left guard, he\u2019ll be alongside Charles Cross, who\u2019s been a great help to Zabel as he experiences life as an NFL player.<\/p>\n \u201cI can\u2019t even put into words how much,\u201d Zabel said in his media availability. \u201cA guy like Charles Cross has helped me so far. He seems like a big brother to me, guiding me though the ranks, what to expect, and some tips and tricks. It goes all the way across the board from Olu [Oluwatimi], Jalen [Sundell], I\u2019m fortunate to be in the offensive line room that I am in.\u201d<\/p>\n Speaking of Sundell, he was a teammate of Zabel\u2019s at North Dakota State. Depending on how the competition plays out, Sundell and Zabel could be starting as left guard and center or even at opposite guard spots. Whatever happens, the reunion is a welcome one for Zabel.<\/p>\n \u201cJust like the good old days, back in Fargo, North Dakota playing next to each other,\u201d Zabel said. \u201cA lot of times we don\u2019t really talk, then after a play we finish each other\u2019s sentences, that\u2019s a little jump scare. It\u2019s awesome to play next to him and he\u2019s a great dude as well.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p>\n Highlights<\/p>\n More RB vs. LB drills<\/strong><\/p>\n Thread of Seahawks RB-LB coverage drills on Day 6 of camp:<\/p>\n First up Robbie Ouzts vs D\u2019Eryk Jackson. <\/p>\n Second clip is Zach Charbonnet and Tyrice Knight pic.twitter.com\/j3HrF5HalB<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 Dugar, Michael-Shawn (@MikeDugar) July 29, 2025<\/a>\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n Sam Darnold and Jaxon Smith-Njigba getting in some post-practice work<\/strong><\/p>\n Additional post-practice clip of Sam and JSN.

For now, here\u2019s a video of Grey Zabel and Charles Cross shotgunning Gatorades. pic.twitter.com\/8fXnrPPSq1<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 Brady Henderson (@BradyHenderson) July 29, 2025<\/a>\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n Zabel said of this moment with Cross: \u201cI just had to show him a few Midwest traditions as we\u2019re getting to know each other. You could probably say I was a bad influence on him.\u201d<\/p>\n Seahawks<\/strong><\/a> training camp continues on Wednesday, July 30 at 1 pm PT, but it\u2019ll once again be without fans in attendance. The next public practice is Thursday, July 31 and it\u2019s for season ticket holders at the bright and early at 9:45 am.<\/p>\n In case you missed it: Field Gulls will be on-site for the Friday and Saturday practices<\/a>, with a special live podcast coming from Fast Fashion Brewing in SoDo on Saturday, August 2 at 2 pm.<\/p>\n\n
