The Seattle Seahawks concluded the 2024 preseason with an explosive 37-33 victory over the Cleveland Browns. It was the first time all summer we got to see plenty of Seattle’s starters, including quarterback Geno Smith.

While the starters played well, especially against a Browns team sitting many of theirs, Seattle’s backups put on a show of their own. One of the biggest moments in the game was from running back Kenny McIntosh.

A seventh round pick in the 2023 NFL draft last year, McIntosh is trying to win the No. 3 running back spot on this Seahawks roster. Against the Browns on Saturday night, he did his best with his only carry of the night, going 56 yards to the house to give Seattle an early 14-3 lead.

On the broadcast was Seahawks legend Michael Bennett, who gave his own insight on the great run from the former Georgia Bulldog… in a way only Michael Bennett could.

McIntosh has done his best in the last two preseason outings to prove he should remain a Seahawk. Last week against the Titans, McIntosh led the team with 46 yards on eight rushes… by far the most by any Seattle ball carrier in the 16-15 loss.

McIntosh has proven he can run hard and be explosive, which is a perfect third option behind Kenneth Walker III and Zach Charbonnet.
