1. Most starters are expected to see some playing time, including quarterback Sam Darnold
After holding out most of their veteran starters for last week's preseason opener against the Raiders, the Seahawks plan to give starters, with a few exceptions, at least some playing time on Friday night.
Macdonald said, "there might be a couple of guys" who won't play, but that most will.
"We're still kind of working through it right now, but our guys are going to start the game out and we'll see how long it goes," he said.
Asked if quarterback Sam Darnold needed playing time this preseason, Macdonald said, "I don't think we need to, but I think it's the best thing for us."
Later when asked about receivers Jaxon Smith-Njigba and Cooper Kupp, he said it's the same for them as with everyone else, "I'm looking forward to seeing our team go rip and then we can kind of move from there. These guys have been working their tails off. Talking to guys on the sideline, it's hard for them to watch the game and not be a part of it, so I think they're excited to go out there."
Macdonald later added, "I'm excited to see these guys demonstrate what they've been doing, and they've earned it. They've earned that opportunity to go let it rip out there and show what they can do to the rest of the world."
