For the 12s, this was their first opportunity to watch the Seahawks practice in pads, and as is customary when the pads are put on and the physicality and intensity ramps up, things got a little heated during practice. Nothing to worry about when it\u2019s something that happens across NFL training camps all the time on an annual basis.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">Let\u2019s get to the Day 6 recap!<\/p>\n<p>Seahawks training camp news and notes<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">It got testy, and Leonard Williams was involved in the chippiness<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">You\u2019re not going to get any video from beat reporters or fans due to team rules, so if you\u2019re absolutely hankering to see a training camp skirmish then you might just have to wait for Hard Knocks. Either way, Leonard Williams took down A.J. Barner on a catch down the field and Barner took exception, while there was a little incident between Connor O\u2019Toole and Bryce Cabeldue.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">It\u2019s football, it\u2019s physical, it\u2019s emotional, and I would not hold a strong reaction to this whatsoever.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">An important Jalen Milroe development<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">Friend of Field Gulls and Seahawksdraftblog.com guest contributor Curtis Allen was at training camp again on Friday. Second-year quarterback Jalen Milroe throwing to Elijah Arroyo immediately caught my attention, if only because that statement certainly wasn\u2019t a thing last year. Milroe was almost exclusively limited to third-team offensive duties, but based on Curtis\u2019 observations, Milroe has mixed in some work higher up the depth chart.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">If there is to be any semblance of a promising leap for Milroe\u2019s development, it starts with actually getting valuable reps with 1s and 2s in training camp, not preseason. Once he gets those in camp, as long as it\u2019s not a disaster, we may yet see a different preseason out of Milroe in a couple of weeks.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fieldgulls.com\/seattle-seahawks-injury-report\/171373\/seahawks-receiver-tory-horton-details-season-ending-injury-cracked-tibia\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Tory Horton confirms last year\u2019s injury was a cracked tibia<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">The second-year receiver had a promising start to his rookie season before a somewhat vague shin injury unexpectedly shut him down from November onward. Horton has since confirmed that he cracked his tibia, with the feeling in his shin stemming way back in Week 3 before it became too much of a problem following the Week 9 win over the Washington Commanders.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup _1bij9g78 _1mt21p01\">\u201cIt was weird. About Week 3, I started feeling my shin and worked through it through a couple games. Got to Week 9, got it checked up and found out there was a crack. Ended up getting surgery on it and that was that. Something that you work through until you can\u2019t. It\u2019s not something that I wish happened but it did and we got the issue solved and the leg isn\u2019t going anywhere now. I feel good.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">Horton had a metal rod inserted into his leg after the Super Bowl, and his recovery went smoothly enough for him to avoid PUP and start training camp Day 1.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">Jadarian Price on his pass catching, pass blocking<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">Seahawks first-round rookie Jadarian Price is undoubtedly a talented pure rusher, but there\u2019s obviously more to that to be a complete running back at the professional level. His lack of catches at Notre Dame has been brought up as a concern for a team looking to get running backs more involved in the passing game, while pass protection is typically a struggle for any rookie. Here\u2019s what he had to say on both fronts in his first media availability of camp.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup _1bij9g78 _1mt21p01\">(On pass catching ability) \u201cThat\u2019s one thing I have worked on since high school. I\u2019ve continuously gotten better at it throughout college and that\u2019s one thing people question going into the pros, so I worked on it and continue to work on it and understand the space and catching abilities.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup _1bij9g78 _1mt21p01\">(On his pass protection) \u201cI\u2019m improving. I\u2019ve shown countless times in practice that I can catch the ball. Still need to show my pass protection more, but we\u2019re going day by day and we\u2019re day six in camp.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">Brian Fleury: Getting his tight ends and fullbacks involved<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">It\u2019s only training camp. It\u2019s only training camp. But if this is going to be a major wrinkle in Fleury\u2019s offense compared to Klint Kubiak (who heavily used A.J. Barner, in fairness) then this could be an exciting development. There\u2019s always a positive in diversifying the passing attack, particularly in Seattle\u2019s case with opposing defenses likely to be hell-bent on slowing down Jaxon Smith-Njigba.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">Highlight: Yes, Devon Witherspoon is practicing<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">He doesn\u2019t have a new contract just yet, but he\u2019s not doing a hold-in. With two years left on his existing deal, talks are ongoing to make <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fieldgulls.com\/seattle-seahawks-news\/170812\/ian-rapoport-seahawks-devon-witherspoon-nfl-highest-paid-cornerback\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Witherspoon the highest paid cornerback in the NFL<\/a>. In the meantime, he\u2019s putting in the work on the practice field.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">Highlight: Sam Darnold to Rashid Shaheed<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">Hey, we get them for a full offseason! Let\u2019s see the chemistry continue to improve.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">The Seahawks return to practice on Saturday at 1 pm PT as part of Back Together Weekend.<\/p>\n<p>Reminder: Meet Field Gulls at Seahawks training camp!<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">In just a few days Field Gulls will be on site as part of the Seahawks Syndicate crew, which features myself, Bryce Coutts, Dan Viens, and Brandon Cain (who won\u2019t be attending in-person this year).
