Christine Michael

It is odd that Christine Michael’s name is included here. This is the same CMike that the Seahawks gave up on last year and traded him to Dallas. Dallas, and later Washington, gave up on him as well. He was only back with the Seahawks because both Lynch and Rawls were injured.

That experience was good for Michael. He was humbled, and he came back to Seattle eager to finally ready to listen and learn.

CMike made the most of his second chance. He looked both explosive and patient. He ran hard and under control. For the first time, he looked like the guy the Seahawks thought they were drafting back in 2013.

With Lynch and Fred Jackson retiring, the Seahawks need someone to backup Thomas Rawls. This new version of Christine Michael would be prefect for that role.
