Good afternoon, 12s.
Here's a look at what's "out there" for today - Wednesday, July 1 - about your Seattle Seahawks:
Another Player In The Top 100
NFL Network's countdown of the Top 100 Players of 2015 continues Wednesday at 6 p.m. PT with players ranked Nos. 20 - 11 and a seventh Seahawks player is set to be revealed.
The list, determined solely by NFL players, already includes Seahawks free safety Earl Thomas (No. 21), quarterback Russell Wilson (No. 22), tight end Jimmy Graham (No. 31), strong safety Kam Chancellor (No. 41), linebacker Bobby Wagner (No. 69), and defensive end Michael Bennett (No. 90).
Cornerback Richard Sherman and running back Marshawn Lynch are the two Seattle players who made the network's player-driven last year (Sherman at No. 7 and Lynch at No. 14) that have yet to appear on this year's list. With just one Seahawk - presumably Sherman or Lynch - slated for tonight's countdown, the other will likely land in the network's Top 10 next week.
Tweet Of The Day
Today's "Tweet of the Day" comes from Seahawks defensive tackle Brandon Mebane, who informs 12s that his belly roll sack-dance will be back this season.
