Byron Maxwell gave the Seahawks a fighting chance Sunday with his "Peanut Punch'' forced fumble by Dez Bryant that helped turn the game around.
As a rookie with the Seahawks in 2011, Byron Maxwell looked around the locker room and knew that simply making the team as a sixth-round pick wasn’t going to be easy.
Joining him on the roster that year was Richard Sherman, taken in the fifth round, and Brandon Browner, signed as a free agent. And already on the roster were Marcus Trufant and Walter Thurmond.
“I was like ‘man, I’ve got to stay on the field so let me think of ways besides interceptions of staying on the field,’’’ he said.
