# Michael Hanich: Hanich expects Trevon Diggs to be ready quickly, likely playing in Seattle's second preseason game against Tennessee, and sees him filling the No. 3 cornerback role while Witherspoon and Jobe start on the boundary and Pritchett/Igbinoghene compete for backup nickel. **Claimed:** Aug 20, 2026 **Pundit:** Michael Hanich — https://missedtakes.co/pundits/michael-hanich **Outlet:** Sports Illustrated — https://missedtakes.co/outlets/sports-illustrated **How it reached us:** published in writing **Original:** https://www.si.com/nfl/seahawks/onsi/how-seahawks-signing-trevon-diggs-affects-terrion-arnold 3 checkable claims — 3 depth chart calls — each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing bet. It names 4 players and teams, each linked to their own record. None of them have settled yet — they grade once their results are in. Of the 3 unsettled calls enough other pundits have weighed in on, this one lands above the room on 1 and below it on 2. > There is a good chance that Diggs will play on Sunday for the Seahawks when they take on the Tennessee Titans for the second preseason game. *(their words, quoted for attribution)* ## The claims - **Devon Witherspoon to be 1st on the depth chart** - Kind: Depth Chart Calls · About: Devon Witherspoon, Seattle Seahawks - Verdict: not settled yet - **Trevon Diggs to be 3rd on the depth chart** - Kind: Depth Chart Calls · About: Trevon Diggs, Seattle Seahawks - Verdict: not settled yet - **Josh Jobe to be 1st on the depth chart** - Kind: Depth Chart Calls · About: Josh Jobe, Seattle Seahawks - Verdict: not settled yet ## Who this take is about - Devon Witherspoon — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/players/devon-witherspoon - Seattle Seahawks — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/teams/seahawks - Trevon Diggs — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/players/trevon-diggs - Josh Jobe — https://missedtakes.co/nfl/players/josh-jobe ## What others said about the same people - Zachary Pereles on Trevon Diggs: After Jaycee Horn and Mike Jackson landed on IR, Pereles argues Carolina must add cornerback help and lists five specific players the Panthers could sign or trade for: Trevon Diggs, Shaun Wade, Tre'Davious White, Kader Kohou and Darrell Luter Jr. — https://missedtakes.co/opinions/2ca71d82-67b6-4ea9-8b3f-daedb406efc1 (scored 0) - Randy Gurzi on Trevon Diggs: Gurzi suggests the Seahawks could sign three free agents — safety Donovan Wilson, guard Kevin Zeitler, and running back Kareem Hunt — if weaknesses show up after Week 1.
