Seahawks wrap joint practices getting best of the Titans injury-limited offense

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) Former defensive backs Quandre Diggs and Jamal Adams did a lot of talking Thursday.Current Seahawks cornerback Devon Witherspoon had the last word with an interception of Will Levis as started a two-minute drill, and he punctuated his second pick of the day by running to give the ball to Adams who's now with the Tenne see Titans. Witherspoon then kept running toward the end zone without the ball and waving at the Jahlil Okafor Jersey Titans. Diggs could only compliment his former teammate after practice, saying Witherspoon could be one of the NFL's best with his energy and intelligence. I mean, hes competitive as heck, Diggs said. "He makes a play over there. Hes yelling acro s to the other side of the field to us, you know, just the back and forth.ADVERTISEMENT might've enjoyed the competitivene s. Titans coach Brian Callahan made clear he was disappointed with Tenne see's execution in the final drill, though his offense was mi sing top receivers (knee) and Tyler Boyd (bruised foot). That wasnt what I was hoping to get out of that period, Callahan said. I thought it just wasnt good execution all the way around, and we throw an interception that would end the game. And so thats good coaching to teach off of, but very disappointed in that.The Seattle Seahawks and Tenne see Titans wrapped up their two days of Thursday with much more emotions coming out. Titans general manager Ran Carthon helped keep the Tenne see offensive line back after Seahawks defensive end Leonard Williams stopped himself after pulling back his right arm, apparently ready to punch rookie while already on top of the seventh overall pick out of Alabama.Witherspoon had been beaten a couple of times Wednesday. As someone who learned from Adams as a rookie a year ago in Seattle, the trash talk went back and forth. The Seahawks cornerback was much happier having a chance to help wrap up Thursday's se sion with an interception. He said was hiding from him as Witherspoon went looking for him after the pick. "Yeah, I was looking for him, so I could get him the ball and show him thats how you do it, for real. Thats how you really run this defense, Witherspoon said. Titans two-time Pro Bowl defensive lineman Jeffery Simmons had his own moment, picking up left guard Laken Tomlinson and to sing him to the ground. Callahan said Thursday's practice was shorter than Wednesday, which went nearly 2 1/2 hours in the heat of the day. After two hard days of controlled joint practices, Callahan said there was no need for the starters to play in the preseason game. Malik Willis will start at quarterback after working with the second team some against Seattle.Hes earned the right to have an opportunity to play with that group and Im looking forward to seeing what he does, Callahan said.Injury i suesSeattle coach Mike Macdonald says wide receiver Pharoah Brown has a foot i sue and running back Zach Charbonnet had his back lock up. Titans defensive lineman Keondre Coburn went in early along with tight end Josh Whyle, who hit his head on the ground during a 1-on-1 drill, as precautionary measures. Wide receiver Kyle Philips hurt a hamstring, and defensive lineman Marlon Davidson hurt a bicep muscle. Linebacker Kenneth Murray was held out with a tight hamstring. ___AP NFL: Lonzo Ball Jersey
