The Seattle Seahawks took a lot of flak for passing on Jalen Carter with the No. 5 overall pick in the 2023 NFL draft. While it’s going to be tough for any rookie in this class to match Carter’s value, it appears that Devon Witherspoon is up to the challenge.
In last night’s road win over the Giants Witherspoon was the singular best player on the field, racking up seven tackles – some of the punishing variety – three quarterback hits, two sacks and a 97-yard pick six. Afterwards, head coach Pete Carroll shared his thoughts on Spoon’s big breakout game.
