Why the Seahawks are a sleeper team to win NFC West this season | The Herd
Peter Schrager joins Colin Cowherd to explain why the Seattle Seahawks are his sleeper team this season.
Seattle Seahawks defensive back Rayshawn Jenkins made an incredible play in the first quarter against the New York Giants on Sunday afternoon.
The Giants were driving down the field on their first possession of the game. Daniel Jones and the offense had the ball for 10 minutes and got as far as the 1-yard line.

On 4th-and-goal, Eric Gray tried to jump into the end zone but got stopped, and as he tried to gain the extra yard, he lost the ball in the end zone.
Jenkins scooped it up and returned it more than 100 yards for a Seattle touchdown. It was the first fumble recovery touchdown of his career and the second touchdown of any kind in his career. He returned an interception for a touchdown while with the Jacksonville Jaguars in 2022.
Jenkins is in his first season with Seattle. He spent time with the Jaguars and Los Angeles Chargers.
