The Seattle Seahawks<\/a> began Organized Team Activities (OTAs) earlier this week<\/a>. A handful of practice sessions will eventually lead to a three-day mandatory minicamp in June. One of the sophomore prospects worth watching closely is defensive lineman Rylie Mills<\/a>.<\/p>\n

ESPN’s Brady Henderson recently noted that this time last year, Mills was a non-participant in offseason workouts due to rehabbing from a torn ACL suffered in college. The 2025 fifth-round pick eventually made his debut in December. Mills capitalized on the opportunity by recording his first career sack in Super Bowl 60. Now, he’s hoping to build on that momentum while going through his first healthy offseason.<\/p>\n

Mills is now primarily listed as a defensive end after playing a versatile inside-outside role as a rookie. Going forward, he’ll be tasked with securing a rotational role behind lineman like Leonard Williams<\/a> and DeMarcus Lawrence<\/a>. Mills can be impactful in that role.<\/p>\n

Mills defends around the line of scrimmage with energy and urgency. His highlight reel sack in Super Bowl 60 versus the New England Patriots<\/a> displayed the highest upside of his abilities. A sophomore Mills could be significantly more impactful due to having a healthy offseason to grow and develop in Mike Macdonald’s system.<\/p>\n
