Former Husky-turned-Seahawk tight end Will Dissly repeated what basically everyone entering the NFL says upon arrival — he’ll do whatever the team asks.
Saturday, at the end of the team’s second rookie mini-camp practice, fulfilling that pledge meant Dissly found himself lining up as a punt returner and trying to catch one of the spinning boots of fifth-round pick Michael Dickson, part of an end-of-practice competition between the team’s tight ends and running backs.
Dickson, whose swirling and perpetually hanging kicks have been one of the highlights of the first two days of camp, uncorked one that Dissly needed some time to judge and then ran up and had to lay out to try to catch.
