    Seahawks WR Jake Bobo embarrasses Titans CB Roger McCreary during one-v-one rep

    The Seattle Seahawks were in Nashville for their first of two padded joint practices with the Tennessee Titans on Wednesday morning. The second session will occur on Thursday, leading up to Saturday’s preseason game versus the Titans. One-versus-one reps are often the most exciting aspect of these practices, particularly those that feature wide receivers against cornerbacks.

    Both defenses had productive days on Wednesday, but sophomore Seahawks wideout Jake Bobo claimed one of the more eye-opening wins for Ryan Grubb’s offense. Pictured below, Bobo had Titans nickel cornerback Roger McCreary looking the complete opposite way after hitting him with a move. Geno Smith completed the pass for a sizable gain.

    This was a fairly notable rep because the Titans believe McCreary is developing into one of the better nickel cornerbacks in the league. Pro Football Focus assigned him a coverage grade of 72.2 and overall defensive grade of 71.3 for his play as a sophomore last season. Bobo’s route-running prowess doesn’t back down from high-end competition.

    Bobo has had an outstanding summer. He’s undergone a flawless acclimation to Ryan Grubb’s new offense, which is going to make big-time passing plays down the field (if the offensive line can hold up in protection). Bobo’s performance throughout camp and the preseason thus far is confirming his role in the offense as the No. 4 receiver behind D.K. Metcalf, Tyler Lockett, and Jaxon Smith-Njigba.
