Mike Macdonald has his defense swarming and his rookies contributing. And it's only Week 1 of the preseason.
The Seattle Seahawks' defense notched two interceptions and held the Las Vegas Raiders to just three points in the first half, although the Raiders fought back in the second half to earn a 23-23 tie. Seattle's coaching staff got an extended look at several of its first-year offensive weapons in the process.
Whether it was Tory Horton's game-high seven targets and touchdown or Elijah Arroyo's and Damien Martinez's extended playing time, Seattle's young playmakers saw their fair share of snaps.
On the Raiders' side, first-round pick Ashton Jeanty made his NFL debut but was bottled up for -1 yard on three carries. The team's promising rookie receivers, Jack Bech and Dont'e Thornton Jr., each made one catch.
