The Seattle Seahawks made it a forgettable debut for Denver Broncos first-round quarterback Bo Nix, who made a bevy of turnover-worthy plays. The Seahawks dropped two interceptions and hauled in two others in their 26-20 Week 1 win.
Kenneth Walker III‘s legs and sensational backend coverage play propelled Seattle, with the score making the game appear much closer than it was.
