Might a latest draft choose discover himself again in a Seattle Seahawks uniform?
As a part of Thursday’s coaching camp observe, the Seahawks introduced in (amongst others) security Marquise Blair for a exercise (first reported by Corbin Smith). Blair has not been on an NFL lively roster since a handful of video games with the Carolina Panthers in 2022.
Blair was drafted within the second spherical by the Seahawks again in 2019, however between on-field efficiency and critical accidents (together with an ACL tear in 2020 and a patellar tendon rupture in 2021) it by no means actually labored out for the previous Utah star. Seattle waived launched Blair throughout the 2022 preseason. He finally signed with the Panthers observe squad, showing in three video games earlier than he was launched midseason.
After his Panthers stint, Blair signed with the Philadelphia Eagles observe squad, however by no means performed a daily season down. The Eagles launched Blair final offseason with a Non-Soccer Harm designation.
It’s value emphasizing that that is only a exercise and never an indication {that a} signing is imminent. Even when he does signal, he’s a longshot to make the roster simply off of his historical past.
