    Richard Sherman loved to see this great rep by Riq Woolen at Seahawks-Titans joint practice

    The Seattle Seahawks have put together what is by far their best cornerback unit since franchise legend Richard Sherman was in his prime. While Sherman had two all-time greats backing him up at safety they never really found him a partner in crime for the other boundary position.

    The dynamic is different for this current Seahawks secondary, where they have two potential superstars at corner. Devon Witherspoon has some gremlin in his game that makes us believe he has All-Pro potential. However, thanks to his remarkable athletic profile, Riq Woolen still has a higher ceiling - and that's really saying something.

    Sherman has worked as a part-time consultant for the Seahawks in recent years, specifically working a lot with Woolen - who comes in the same-sized package but is much, much faster than Sherman ever was in the open field. It sounds like Sherman loves the progress Woolen is making. Here's what he shared about this great rep vs. star receiver Calvin Ridley at yesterday's joint practice with the Tennessee Titans.

    The Seahawks will practice against the Titans again later on this morning, then they'll play them in another preseason game on Saturday evening. Seattle's starters are not expected to play, though.

    Once the regular season begins, Woolen is projected to start on the right boundary , with Spoon in the slot and Tre Brown on the left side.
