Seattle Seahawks: Tyrice Knight
September 16, 2024
Tyrice Knight stepped up in a significant way during his first NFL regular season action, logging 44 defensive snaps and making eight combined tackles, five of which limited gains to two yards or less. Despite some typical rookie mistakes, such as being overwhelmed by blockers on a tight end screen, his preparedness during the practice week proved crucial after Jerome Baker exited the game with a hamstring injury. Coach Mike Macdonald expressed confidence in Knight, noting that his experience gained from the extensive reps would help him improve as the game slows down for him. Knight's performance was vital in the Seahawks' defense, contributing to a key three-and-out in overtime that led to their victory.
