Seahawks evaluate free agents at secondary position amid injury concerns

Summary

The Seattle Seahawks worked out three free agents on September 15, including defensive back Devan Boykin, linebacker Austin Keys, and defensive back Larry Worth III. This decision comes as the team navigates injuries in their secondary, with Nick Emmanwori and Ty Okada both missing the season opener against the New England Patriots. Boykin, who contributed to Indiana's 2025 College Football Playoff national championship, is looking to secure a spot after being waived by the Pittsburgh Steelers earlier this season. Worth III and Keys also bring varied experience to the evaluation process as the Seahawks seek to bolster their defensive depth.
