Final day (Aug. 16)

Pete Carroll said the Seahawks are practicing faster than ever. Part of the reason they don’t run joint practices with another team is the difference in pace: “I don’t want to mix our tempo with somebody else’s.”

DeShawn Shead told 710 ESPN that he came into camp 10 pounds lighter this season so he could cover slot receivers better.

Multi-faceted Tanner McEvoy — the co-hero of the win in Kansas City — will get more play on special teams as he makes a bid for that final receiver spot.

Don’t expect Thomas Rawls to carry a big load early in the season, if at all.

Kelcie McCray, acquired in a trade last summer, has been a great third safety.

Richard Sherman talked about the fun the Hawks have had in this camp and said he has seen “the same joy, the same intensity, the same passion” as the 2013 Super Bowl championship season.

Sherman talked a little about Earl Thomas, who is “kind of like either the Dos Equis guy or Chuck Norris.”

Michael Bennett talked about the great black female role models in the Olympics, especially swimmer Simone Manuel.

Continuing his yearlong theme of personal improvement for all, Bennett is starting a team book club.

Tony McDaniel landed back with the Hawks because he was vacationing in Leavenworth.

Day 13 (Aug. 15)

Big news of the day: Kenny Easley is a finalist for the Hall of Fame.

Second-biggest news: The Seahawks brought back Tony McDaniel.

Thomas Rawls, back in action with the starters, said he’s ahead of schedule.

C.J. Prosise finally returned from a hamstring injury — after what seemed like months to Pete Carroll.

While the running backs are back, J’Marcus Webb is not.

Carroll said Justin Britt passed a big test against Kansas City’s Dontari Poe.

Tyvis Powell, who made a big impression in Kansas City, is willing to do anything to make the team — even fetch water.

Bob Condotta talks to veterans and coaches about how training camp has changed.

With the running backs getting healthy, Cameron Marshall was released to make room for linebacker Quayshawn Nealy.

Day 12 (Aug. 12)

J’Marcus Webb is out for the Kansas City game, and the coaches decided to move Garry Gilliam back to right tackle and try Bradley Sowell at left tackle.

Trevone Boykin gets his chance in Kansas City, just like Russell Wilson once did.

Bob Condotta offers his list of things to watch in Kansas City.

Under a new five-year agreement, the Seahawks will pay $140,000 to Texas A&M for limited rights to the “12th Man” trademark. 

Day 11 (Aug. 11)

J’Marcus Webb was out with an injury, but Sealver Siliga finally practiced.

With Webb out, Bradley Sowell played at left tackle and Garry Gilliam at right.

Tom Cable said Germain Ifedi’s biggest issue is dealing with failure.

Cable is keen to see Justin Britt and the rest of the linemen play.

Seattle Times observations Thursday include strongside linebacker competition, Earl Thomas, receivers and more.

The Hawks swapped defensive ends — waiving Montese Overton and adding Tylor Harris.

Tyler Lockett’s No. 1 concern is still returning kicks, and he says he still has a long way to go as a receiver.

Jake Heaps will get a huge opportunity in Kansas City on Saturday.

Tharold Simon begins his last chance with the Seahawks on Saturday.

Russell Wilson was hit more than all but one QB last season. Conclusion: He needs to get rid of the ball faster (like he did in the second half of 2015).

The Seahawks reached injury settlements with Cooper Helfet and Christian French, releasing them from IR.

Day 10 (Aug. 10)

Jimmy Graham is back after basically having to learn to walk again.

Five observations from DC Kris Richard.

Brandin Bryant and George Fant are among the undrafted rookies who are standing out.

Richard said the contenders at strongside linebacker are going to make the coaches’ decision “really difficult.”

Germain Ifedi continues to physically and verbally challenge the Hawks’ star-studded defense.

Jarran Reed had an injury scare but said he is OK.

Trevone Boykin should see a lot of action Saturday in Kansas City.

Jahri Evans signed for one year and $1.065 million, with only $80,000 guaranteed.

Day 9 (Aug. 9)

The Seahawks will go slow with Thomas Rawls while anticipating the returns of C.J. Prosise and Jimmy Graham.

J’Marcus Webb has no problem with the practice rotations and knows he needs to keep working hard.

Among the many things Michael Bennett had to say to 710 ESPN: The coaches “try to make it so (the offense) can score more and get a chance to build up their confidence, like a girl. You want to make her look really (pretty). It’s like, ‘How’s my hair look?'”

Jahri Evans worked with the No. 3 line.

Gregg Bell and Dave Boling of the TNT talked about the running back situation.

Josh Shirley returned, becoming the sixth player from the 2011 Huskies on the roster. Plus, a bunch of other personnel notes.

One of the big differences in this camp: Earl Thomas is healthy.

As always, Pete Carroll is taking a long time to figure out his D-line rotation.

Day 5 (Aug. 4)

The Seahawks are bringing in 33-year-old guard Jahri Evans for a look on Friday.

Brandon Cottom, who seemed the favorite to stick as the fullback, suffered an apparent Achilles injury. Here’s a rundown of injuries and the team’s moves Thursday.

The RB position has a major imbalance right now — some guys not getting any work, some guys getting too much.

In good injury news, Jimmy Graham and Thomas Rawls are “almost day-to-day,” Pete Carroll said. “We’re getting really close.”

Michael Bennett has been fighting the O-linemen a lot over the first few days, and Carroll got tired of it and ejected him from practice Thursday.

Germain Ifedi has set the tone for the rookies — and might be headed to right tackle if Evans signs.

The Seahawks released yet another long snapper today (let’s not bother to remember their names at this point), and Bob Condotta detailed the merry-go-round that position has been this year.

Richard Sherman still thinks Tharold Simon will end up being better than him. (He had better stay healthy then and play much better than he did in the 2014 postseason.)

Day off (Aug. 3)

Bob Condotta breaks down the roster after four days of practice (the team was off Wednesday).

This rookie class looks like the best since the 2012 group that included Russell Wilson, Bobby Wagner and Bruce Irvin.

Art Thiel says it will be “one of the more dramatic coaching feats” if Tom Cable and Pete Carroll can “cobble together a respectable” offensive line by Thanksgiving. (That’s Week 12, if you’re counting.)

What we’ve learned so far (and what we need to know), per Danny O’Neil.

The P-I uses what we know at this point to forecast the 53-man roster.

A book called “The Road to Character” has laid the groundwork for this Seahawks season.

Day 4 (Aug. 2)

Based on Tom Cable’s comments, J’Marcus Webb could not play tomorrow and has a long way to go.

Day 3 (Aug. 1)

Cooper Helfet and C.J. Prosise headline the key injuries through three days of camp.

First-round guard Germain Ifedi and Pro Bowl end Michael Bennett got into it — something Pete Carroll loved to see. Among Bob Condotta’s many other notes there, Frank Clark sat out most of practice with a calf injury.

Kam Chancellor says this camp has the intensity of 2013, the year the Hawks won the Super Bowl.

Brandon Browner is making slow but steady progress as he learns to play safety, Chancellor said.

Tharold Simon knows this will be his last year in Seattle if he can’t stay healthy.

With Chris Clemons retiring, Ryan Robinson “is going to get a really, really good look.”

Brandon Cottom looks like the lead option at fullback.

Paul Richardson hasn’t lost any speed as he comes off a hamstring injury.

Doug Baldwin said he is feeling “loved and appreciated” after the Hawks paid him $46 million.

Dave Boling and Gregg Bell of the TNT talk about Garry Gilliam, Frank Clark and more.

Day 1 (July 30)

Michael Bennett did not consider holding out — he wants to win the Super Bowl again.

Pete Carroll on his coaching plan: ‘I have no end to this.’

Jimmy Graham and Thomas Rawls did indeed start out on PUP.

Despite a life that seems to progress at light speed, Russell Wilson is as focused on the moment as ever.
