Seahawks offensive coordinator Shane Waldron used a plethora of offensive concepts in Seattle’s Week 1 preseason win. Fans saw the deployment of rookie wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba from Ohio State relatively early. Smith’s usage in the slot position may be a point of emphasis for what should be a balanced Seahawks offensive attack moving forward. Meanwhile, rookie running back Zach Charbonnet (UCLA) relished his few touches on the ground as well, attacking both the C & B gaps in power schemes.
With this, there were two noticeable concepts in the passing game that worked well on Thursday night against the Vikings.
