Compared to the last 14, rollicking years, practice today was like it was inside a library.

No music. 'No nonsense.'

Pete Carroll definitely is not in charge.

All that changed on the 1st practice day of the Mike Macdonald era, the start of rookie minicamp.

The first-time head coach is figuring things out: thenewstribune.com/sports/nfl/sea… Tacoma News Tribune

4th-rd pick TE AJ Barner didn’t practice to start rookie minicamp because of a hamstring issue he says he got training like a track athlete instead of a football player during the pre-draft process. May be on the field sometime this weekend Tacoma News Tribune

4th-rd pick Tyrice Knight said he was nervous in these initial drills at rookie minicamp, “1st NFL practice.”

Was at inside linebacker, where he was in 2023 at UTEP. Coach Mike Macdonald has said he’s likely a future ILB but when vets get here he’ll likely be outside
