“Every team is going to grow every year, that’s just the way the NFL goes,” Macdonald said. “We don’t play them tomorrow, so I’m not really worried about them right now.”
“No reaction,” he added. “I mean, look, those are great players, and they’re doing what they do. It probably feels like that’s what’s best for their teams, what they need to do, and that’s good. When it’s time to play those guys, we’ll be ready and put together a game plan and go rock and roll.”
The Seahawks made their own moves, locking down Jaxon Smith-Njigba long-term, drafting Jadarian Price in the first round, and adding some young pieces on defense. However, the losses were significant, including Kenneth Walker III, Boye Mafe and Tariq Woolen leaving in free agency.
The losses, coupled with the Rams and 49ers making splash moves, have the Super Bowl champs somewhat ignored nationally. Macdonald doesn’t give two hoots.
“Yeah, I don’t care,” Macdonald said. “Don’t care. If you start worrying about what everybody else is doing, it’s just mentally taxing. It’s so much easier if you don’t.
“Let’s just worry about the Seahawks and being the best version of ourselves and getting better every day.”
