Macdonald, who saw Ward play as a rookie last year, praised Ward's command of the offense, stating, \"He's in command of the offense. He's did a great job.\" On the Seahawks side, quarterback Sam Darnold noted the Seahawks' defense was formidable, saying, \"They're doing a lot great things.\" The practice took place in warm conditions, with temperatures feeling close to 100 degrees.
