PHILADELPHIA — The first NFL sack of Cody Barton’s career came on a play he says may not result in a totally positive grade from his coaches.
“I’ll get a minus for leaving my man but I’ll get a plus for getting a sack,’’ Barton said after the Seahawks’ 17-9 win Sunday against the Eagles.
As Barton explained it, his assignment called for making sure tight end Dallas Goedert was covered, with Seattle’s linebackers sharing what he said was “combo’’ coverage on Philly’s tight ends and running backs.
