RENTON, Wash. — And so it begins.
After training camp, preseason and a three-day break, the Seahawks returned to the practice field at the VMAC on Monday afternoon to begin preparations for a regular-season game that figures to be as highly hyped — and fraught with magnified but also conflicting emotions — as any in team history.
In case you haven't heard, the Seahawks open their 47th regular season next Monday at Lumen Field against the Denver Broncos and Russell Wilson, a return of a legendary Seattle sports figure on par — if not topping — those of Alex Rodriguez in 2000 and Ken Griffey Jr. in 2007 and for those with longer memories, that of Lenny Wilkens in 1972, to name a few.
