The NFL Management Council and NFL Players Association have determined that the Seattle Seahawks violated the CBA's offseason workout rules on the prohibition of live contact during one of the club's organized team activity days. As a result, the Seahawks will forfeit two of their scheduled OTA practices (June 6 and 7) as well as an additional offseason workout day on Friday, June 8. Seahawks' players are not permitted to be at the facility on those days, but will be paid for the sessions. The club cannot reschedule the cancelled days.
Confirmed on NFL site
Pete Carroll and the Seahawks are dumbasses. There's no need to have contact in OTAs. That's not the purpose of OTAs and there will be plenty of contact practice once camp start. This is the first time I've ever heard of a team getting penalized for this ...

+1 all the way...
Jenkins will serve as quality depth as he learns... and the more he improves, the more he can rotate in. He's a late 1st rounder... we shouldn't and won't feel pressured to force him on the field in yr 1 unless injuries or outstanding improvement occurs.

Jim Harbaugh singled out Cox as a player who has stood out on the 49ers' practice field during OTAs. "Perrish Cox is having a real good offseason," Harbaugh said Tuesday. "He's a good addition for us." "I think he'll contribute, not only in special teams, but he'll have a shot in our secondary in a spot yet to be determined," said Harbaugh, noting Cox can play the slot or outside.
looks like another fragile ego to coddle, right Jim?

No worries. This kinda confirm my theory. Guys thinking about running their routes the right way tend to drop balls more because they are 'thinking'. Kinda like Crabtree trying to learn all the routes, and early in VD's career. It just shows Jenkins is learning More mistakes are made in camp, that's how you take the mistakes and learn.

Don't be surprised when I go undefeated. ;)
Your bye week is gonna be rough...

at the 01:10min mark. Moss schools the rookie. I know its just OTAs but damn we gonna see a lot of that during the season.

I think we'll keep 5 CB's anyway. It should be just like last year, with Cox replacing Spencer.
