At this time last year, the Seattle Seahawks' secondary had its fair share of question marks.
"You can imagine the offseason we had last year, when Earl [Thomas] was hurt and Richard [Sherman] was hurt and Kam [Chancellor] was hurt," coach Pete Carroll said. "All those guys were banged up. And Jeremy Lane of course, he had a terrible time just trying to make it back."
Chancellor was also preparing for a holdout that extended through the first two weeks of the regular season. And free-agent signee Cary Williams was attempting to fit into a new scheme as the starting right cornerback.
