Tanner McEvoy says his last-play TD grab that gave Seattle a win last Saturday was fun but he knows he needs to do a lot more to make the Seahawks' roster.
Preseason games, NFL coaches often say, are most valuable in seeing which young players can make the same kind of plays in a game they outinely make in practice.
Showing, in other words, that the pressure of the moment , even if just the preseason, isn’t too big for them.
It’s hard to have succeeded more noticeably in fulfilling that goal than Tanner McEvoy did last Saturday at Kansas City, hauling down a 37-yard touchdown catch on a heave into the end zone from Trevone Boykin after the clock had already hit zero.
