  Seahawks | DeShawn Shead likely to wind up on PUP    Sun Jul 9, 08:55 AM

Seattle Seahawks CB DeShawn Shead (knee) is likely to begin the 2017 season on the Physically Unable to Perform list, meaning he would be forced to miss the first six games of the regular season.

Footballguys view: Jeremy Lane has earned some praise from head coach Pete Carroll after a tough 2016, and he is the favorite to be the outside corner opposite Richard Sherman to open the season while Shead is out. Lane is also the nickel corner and he will shift inside in nickel packages, leaving an outside spot up for grabs between impressive third-round pick Shaq Griffin and special teams ace Neiko Thorpe.

  Seahawks | Jeremy Lane could start     Thu Jul 6, 02:05 PM

Seattle Seahawks CB Jeremy Lane is the favorite to start opposite CB Richard Sherman in place of injured CB DeShawn Shead (knee), according to Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times. Head coach Pete Carroll and defensive coordinator Kris Richards have given votes of confidence to Lane. CBs Shaquill Griffin and Neiko Thorpe are also in the mix at the position, with Griffin being Lane's main competition.

Footballguys view: We suspect Carroll will kick the tires on a ton of cornerbacks not just to find a starter across from Sherman but, if we read the tea leaves correctly, to perhaps find a potential replacement for Sherman in 2018. While things have been mellow between Sherman and the team the last few months, the tension is still there. Could they consider moving on? If Lane or someone else steps up, perhaps.
