Five things to watch as the Seahawks begin OTAs this week

For the first time since the wild-card playoff loss last January in Dallas, the Seahawks will take the field as a whole this week at the VMAC, for what the NFL lovingly terms organized team activities (OTAs).

That’s a fancy way of saying that everyone — offense, defense and special teams — can all work together after having had to do any drills up to now separately (only offense, only defense, etc.), though the workouts are voluntary and are not held in full pads and full contact is not allowed.

NFL teams can hold 10 over the next three weeks, and Seattle will first hit the field Monday afternoon.
