RENTON — By one standard, there may be nowhere for Ugo Amadi to go but down from here.
Just two games into his NFL career and the Seahawks defensive back has already turned in what coach Pete Carroll called “a perfect play. It really was.’’
The play, which occurred with just under two minutes left in the first half of a preseason game Sunday at Minnesota, came when Amadi, lined up as a gunner to the left on a punt by Michael Dickson, powered and sped his way through a double-team at the line of scrimmage, then raced downfield to make a right-shoulder hit on Minnesota returner Bisi Johnson at almost the exact moment the ball arrived 53 yards downfield (the entire play took nine seconds).
