Summary
Seattle Seahawks coach Mike Macdonald liked the intensity his players showed during a fight-filled practice. At least five separate scuffles broke out a day earlier, including one in which star receiver DK Metcalf grabbed cornerback Tre Brown's helmet and swung it at him. Earlier in practice, Brown landed a punch on Jake Bobo that left his nose bloodied.
Macdonald says he doesn't think quarterback Geno Smith will play Saturday. The Seahawks open their preseason schedule Saturday against the Los Angeles Chargers. Macdonald said tight end Noah Fant, defensive lineman Dre'Mont Jones and outside linebacker Darrell Taylor are trending towards being able to practice next week.
Williams is coming off a torn ACL on Dec. 11. The Seahawks are working through when he'll start practicing. The plan is still for Williams to play center.
