But there’s an interesting sub-story that is being overlooked: Seattle’s secondary, specifically their starting corners, are F-A-S-T.Clicking on the “Show more” gives you the exciting tidbit that Witherspoon recorded the fastest sack of the night at 2.6 seconds.In fact, it wasn’t even the fastest speed on Witherspoon’s 97-yard pick-6.NFL NextGen Stats: Devon Witherspoon ran 20.25mph on his 97-yard pick 6 Monday. Total distance 117.3 yards, 2nd longest this season. +17.
Tariq Woolen’s top speed was 2 full miles per hour faster than Devon Witherspoon’s top speed of 20.25mph.Granted, Witherspoon moved to the slot after Jamal Adams got hurt, and was in the slot on the play that yielded his pick-6. And, if the Seahawks are smart, Witherspoon will probably stay in the slot the rest of the season .If either Woolen or Witherspoon get their hands on the football and have green grass in front of them, THEY’RE GONE! There just ain’t very many players in the league that can catch them.Witherspoon’s pick-6 was the 2nd-longest in Seahawks history.
