Seahawks stock report: Sam Howell, Laviska Shenault rising; Dee Eskridge falling

New York Times  

The Seattle Seahawks suffered their first loss of the Mike Macdonald era, falling 16-15 to the Tennessee Titans in the second preseason game for both teams Saturday night at Nissan Stadium. Howell had four explosive passes against the Titans: The 23-yard go ball to Winston, a 17-yard completion in the flat to rookie tight end AJ Barner on third-and-2, a 33-yard strike down the seam to receiver Cody White and a short pass to receiver Laviska Shenault Jr. for 18 yards to beat a blitz. WR Easop Winston Jr. Winston produced Seattle’s only touchdown when he beat cornerback Tre Avery down the field in the first quarter. Assuming Shenault will be the team’s fifth receiver, that theoretically leaves Winston, Dareke Young, Dee Eskridge and White competing for one spot. Numbers are only part of the evaluation, but it works in Winston’s favor that, as Macdonald said Saturday, “He makes plays when given the opportunity.” Stock down RG Anthony Bradford Bradford practiced with the second-string offensive line Thursday while third-round rookie Christian Haynes took his spot with the starters.
