Michael Bennett: 'I don't think I was out of control'

Every weekday morning, we'll round up local and national Seattle Seahawks-related links.

Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll said defensive lineman Michael Bennett lost his mind a little bit when he went after quarterback Andy Dalton during an interception return last week. Bennett, however, disagrees according to Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times:

“I don’t think I was out of control,” he said “I just hit the quarterback. Just because he’s the quarterback it’s a big deal. Carriers get hit all the time and knocked to the ground, but the only time people care -- one, he’s the quarterback and he gets paid a lot of money and people just put this zoom-in screen on it so it becomes a big deal.
