    Seahawks' Jason Myers: Misses extra point Thursday

    Myers connected on a 48-yard field goal and made two of three extra-point tries in Thursday's 23-23 tie versus the Raiders.

    Last season, Myers hit 86.7 percent of his field-goal attempts, ranking 12th in the league among kickers who played at least 10 games. He also finished 24th by making 92.5 percent of his extra-point tries. Myers has been a mostly steady starter for the Seahawks, and he still has plenty of leg at 34 years old, as evidenced by a 59-yarder last season.

  • Seahawks' Ricky White: Makes one catch Thursday

    White (undisclosed) caught his lone target for 14 yards in Thursday's 23-23 preseason tie versus the Raiders.

    A rookie seventh-round pick, White missed practice time during the week with an undisclosed injury, but he returned to action in the fourth quarter of Thursday's exhibition game, catching a short pass from fellow rookie Jalen Milroe. With rookie fifth-round pick Tory Horton on track for a roster spot, White is competing with Dareke Young and Cody White for a depth role in the Seattle offense.

    Seahawks' Cody White: No catches in preseason opener

    White didn't catch either of his two targets in Thursday's 23-23 tie against the Raiders.

    White started the first half with Drew Lock at quarterback but was unable to haul in a pass all game. The 26-year-old wideout played four games with the Seahawks last season and caught two passes (three targets) for 44 yards. He's on the roster bubble this season and is primarily competing with fourth-year wideout Dareke Young and rookie Ricky White.

  • Dareke Young WR | LV

    Seahawks' Dareke Young: One long catch Thursday

    Young caught one of three targets for 31 yards in Thursday's 23-23 tie against the Raiders.

    Young tied with rookie Tory Horton for a team high in yardage, although Horton was targeted seven times and scored. Heading into the final year of his rookie contract, Young is battling for a depth roster spot, and Horton's emergence in training camp slims those odds. However, Young has consistently reeled in deep balls during training camp, and his willingness to work on special teams could help him land one of the final spots.

  • Seahawks' Jacardia Wright: Scores in preseason tie

    Wright rushed seven times for 34 yards and a touchdown in Thursday's 23-23 preseason tie versus the Raiders.

    Wright started the second half and immediately broke off an 11-yard carry. He put forth another 10-yard carry in the fourth quarter before punching in a touchdown from the one-yard line. Meanwhile, George Holani was the clear top running back in Thursday's game, finishing with 81 yards on eight touches. Damien Martinez -- who played only in the first half -- rushed six times for 10 yards and caught two passes for 15 yards. Holani is the leader for the No. 3 job behind Kenneth Walker and Zach Charbonnet, so Wright likely needs to compete with Martinez for the No. 4 role.

  • Seahawks' Damien Martinez: Outplayed by Holani

    Martinez rushed six times for 10 yards and caught both of his targets for 15 yards in Thursday's 23-23 preseason tie against the Raiders. He also totaled 25 yards on two kickoff returns.

    Martinez was the second running back into the game after George Holani, who had 81 scrimmage yards and a touchdown on eight touches. Holani has the early lead in the competition for the third spot on Seattle's running back depth chart behind Kenneth Walker and Zach Charbonnet, and the gap between him and Martinez likely grew Thursday. Martinez will try to make up some ground in the next preseason game against the Chiefs on Aug. 15.

  • George Holani RB | SEA

    Seahawks' George Holani: Strengthens case for roster spot

    Holani rushed seven times for 61 yards and a touchdown while catching his only target for 20 yards in Thursday's 23-23 preseason tie against the Raiders.

    Holani made the most of his opportunity as the starter Thursday with the Seahawks resting numerous key offensive contributors, including running backs Kenneth Walker and Zach Charbonnet. Holani's production came in just two drives of action, the second of which he capped with a 24-yard rushing touchdown. The second-year pro seems to have the early edge in the competition for the third spot on the depth chart over rookie seventh-round pick Damien Martinez, who mustered only 25 scrimmage yards on eight touches Thursday. Holani will look to keep building momentum in Seattle's second preseason game, Aug. 15 against the Chiefs.

  • Tory Horton WR | SEA

    Seahawks' Tory Horton: Adds to camp hype with preseason TD

    Horton caught three of seven targets for 31 yards and a touchdown in Thursday's 23-23 preseason tie against the Raiders. He also had a five-yard punt return.

    Horton got a steady diet of targets from Drew Lock while the Seahawks rested established starters such as Sam Darnold, Jaxon Smith-Njigba and Cooper Kupp. Horton has frequently joined Smith-Njigba and Kupp with the first-team offense in training camp, and the rookie fifth-round pick kept building momentum with Thursday's performance, which included a 10-yard touchdown catch in the second quarter. Horton may get to play with Darnold in a game situation for the first time in Seattle's next preseason game, Aug. 15 against the Chiefs.

  • Jalen Milroe QB | SEA

    Seahawks' Jalen Milroe: Minimal passing production in debut

    Milroe completed six of 10 passes for 61 yards while rushing three times for 38 yards in Thursday's 23-23 preseason tie against the Raiders.

    Milroe played the entire second half after Drew Lock played the first half. The rookie third-round pick's muted passing performance in his NFL debut suggests he may not be ready to challenge Sam Darnold or Lock for one of the top two spots on the depth chart, though Milroe put his rushing ability on display with a 27-yard run in the fourth quarter. Milroe will likely see significant action against the Chiefs on Aug. 15 in Seattle's second preseason game.

  • Drew Lock QB | SEA

    Seahawks' Drew Lock: One TD, one INT in preseason start

    Lock completed 12 of 22 passes for 147 yards, one touchdown and one interception in Thursday's 23-23 preseason tie against the Raiders. He added three rushing attempts for four yards.

    Lock got the start Thursday and played the entire first half with Seattle resting new starting quarterback Sam Darnold. The veteran backup bounced back from an interception on the opening drive to lead a touchdown drive on the next possession. Lock added a 10-yard touchdown pass to Tory Horton in the second quarter. Rookie third-round pick Jalen Milroe played the entire second half but finished with only 61 passing yards. Milroe is viewed as a raw prospect and seems to be behind Lock in the battle for the second spot on the depth chart, though avoiding turnovers will nonetheless be a point of emphasis for Lock in the team's second preseason game against the Chiefs on Aug. 15.
