The Seattle Seahawks have been in the news recently due to the absence of their rookie running back Devon Witherspoon from training camp. Witherspoon, who was drafted in the fourth round of this year’s NFL draft, has yet to sign a contract with the team due to ongoing negotiations.
The Seahawks had high hopes for Witherspoon, who was expected to make an immediate impact in the backfield. However, his absence from training camp has put a damper on those expectations. Witherspoon’s agent has been in talks with the team for weeks, but so far no agreement has been reached.
The lack of a contract has caused some concern among Seahawks fans. Without a deal in place, Witherspoon is unable to practice with the team and get up to speed with the playbook. This could potentially set him back when the season starts and limit his impact on the field.
The Seahawks are hoping to get a deal done soon so that Witherspoon can join the team and get ready for the season. Until then, they will have to wait and see how the negotiations progress. In the meantime, they will have to make do without their rookie running back until he is able to join the team.
