There’s a good chance that the Seahawks will look to lead with their top-ranked scoring defense on Sunday, and safety Coby Bryant should play a huge role if that’s the plan. <\/p>\n
Bryant, who has played both safety roles and cornerback in his four-year career, will likely have a variety of responsibilities against New England. The list may include shadowing tight end Hunter Henry, doubling receiver Sefon Diggs, providing run support, and ensuring that speedy playmakers like TreVeyon Henderson don’t turn second-level plays into home runs. <\/p>\n
Head coach Mike Macdonald has a lot of flexibility with Bryant in the lineup. It’s that versatility that makes the 26-year-old such an alluring free-agent target. <\/p>\n
Bryant is coming off a tremendous season at safety, in which he allowed an opposing passer rating of only 54.0<\/a> in coverage. He has a projected market value of $14.3 million<\/a> annually. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"There’s a good chance that the Seahawks will look to lead with their top-ranked scoring defense on Sunday,…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":449789,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[436],"tags":[49,48,514,82],"class_list":["post-449788","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nfl","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-nfl","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/449788","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=449788"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/449788\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/449789"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=449788"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=449788"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=449788"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
