Seahawks Defensive Storylines to Watch at Training Camp - Locked On Podcast

While the arrival of several newcomers such as Dre'Mont Jones, Julian Love, and Devon Witherspoon provides talent upgrades for the Seattle Seahawks on defense, the health of Jamal Adams and defensive line depth remain lingering concerns.
In this story:

After aggressively spending in free agency to sign Dre'Mont Jones, Julian Love, and Bobby Wagner and investing a top-five pick in Devon Witherspoon, the Seattle Seahawks hope to see major improvements on defense heading into the 2023 season. But questions remain for a unit that ranked 25th overall in scoring a year ago.

Hosts Corbin Smith and Rob Rang break down key storylines to watch unfold on defense as Seattle prepares to kick off training camp on Wednesday, including the importance of a healthy Jamal Adams and questions about a revamped defensive line lacking an experienced traditional nose tackle.

Smith and Rang also examine a flurry of roster moves executed by Seattle on Tuesday, including restructuring Quandre Diggs and releasing a once-promising young pass rusher, and rank training camp battles on the defensive side of the ball from finding an edge rusher to start across from Uchenna Nwosu to enticing competition across the board at cornerback.
