Seahawks CB Devon Witherspoon jokingly took credit for Derick Hall's Week 7 TD
Seattle Seahawks sophomore EDGE Derick Hall scored his first career touchdown in Sunday's blowout 34-14 Week 7 victory over the Atlanta Falcons. With the Seahawks nursing a 24-14 lead, Seattle's defense helped Mike Macdonald put the game completely out of reach when Hall recovered a Boye Mafe strip-sack for a defensive touchdown, increasing their advantage to 31-14.
Hall recently discussed his 36-yard scoop-and-score, which featured an outstanding block from cornerback Devon Witherspoon. Witherspoon jokingly took credit for springing Hall to his first-ever end-zone visit.
"I did [see Witherspoon's block], 'Spoon, as soon as we got off [the field], he said you're welcome and I said thank you," Hall joked about Witherspoon taking credit for the score. "He [Witherspoon] plays with an effort that nobody can imagine. I feel like that's where everybody on defense team gets it from. Witherspoon flies around every single play. He's always right there. We love this game so much. We're all living in the moment. 'Spoon is a very high-character guy, a leader on this team. He makes it known from time to time."
Additionally, Hall added four quarterback pressures against the Falcons. The No. 37 overall selection in the 2023 NFL Draft, Hall has accumulated a team-high five sacks this campaign. They'll need his best-efforts against Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills' high-octane offense this Sunday.
