With Riq Woolen sidelined, the Seahawks might be looking to Josh Jobe for more playing time.

As the Seattle Seahawks face a challenging stretch with cornerback Riq Woolen sidelined, all eyes are turning to his replacement, Josh Jobe. Known for his patience and hard work behind the scenes, Jobe has been waiting for this moment—and now that it’s here, he’s ready to seize the opportunity.

“I’ve been waiting for my chance, and now that it’s here, I’m ready to step up and show them what I can do,” Jobe said, exuding confidence and determination. This is Jobe’s moment to prove he belongs among the league’s top cornerbacks, and the absence of Woolen gives him the stage to do just that.

Jobe, who has been with the Seahawks since being signed as an undrafted free agent, has spent the majority of his early career working to make a name for himself in the competitive cornerback room. Now, with Woolen on the sidelines, Jobe has the chance to showcase his talents on a much bigger stage. His physicality, speed, and ability to read the quarterback’s eyes have always been strengths, but it’s his confidence in his preparation that could make all the difference in the upcoming weeks.

Head coach Pete Carroll has always spoken highly of Jobe’s potential, noting his work ethic and football IQ. “Josh is a guy who’s been putting in the work since day one. He’s always been ready for this moment,” Carroll said. “Now, it’s about him going out there and proving that he can handle the responsibility of being a starter for this defense.”

The Seahawks have always valued depth in their secondary, and this situation with Woolen gives Jobe a chance to show he can be an important piece of the puzzle moving forward. As a physical cornerback with excellent ball skills, Jobe has the potential to make a major impact in Seattle’s defense. His ability to cover top receivers and disrupt passing plays will be crucial, especially as the Seahawks face some of the league’s most explosive offenses.

For Jobe, it’s not just about filling in for Woolen—it’s about seizing the opportunity to carve out a significant role for himself in the NFL. He understands the weight of the moment, but his mindset is clear: this is his time to shine. “I’ve been in the background long enough. Now, it’s time to show that I’m ready to take over and make plays for this team,” Jobe added.

As the Seahawks head into a critical stretch of games, the pressure is on Jobe to deliver. With Woolen’s absence, the spotlight is now squarely on him, and he’s determined not to let it slip away. Jobe’s confidence, work ethic, and dedication will be tested in the coming weeks, but if his words are any indication, he’s ready to rise to the occasion and prove that he’s more than capable of filling the void left by Woolen.

The NFL is a league of opportunity, and Josh Jobe is making the most of his. His chance is here, and he’s ready to make it count.

Celtics just caught another tough break if latest leak is true

It’s an annual tradition at this point. Early September rolls around, and Boston Celtics fans get their first glimpse at the team’s “City Edition” uniform for the upcoming season. The preseason leak for the 2025-26 campaign came on Saturday evening.

Celtics fan account, “Green Runs Deep,” shared a photo of the likely design, which features a white base, gold lettering and numbers, with black trim.

While this isn’t an official release, this account has previously leaked the accurate design in years prior.

Judging the newest Celtics threads isn’t easy, especially considering the monstrosity that Nike gave the team last year. The “Action Green” jerseys were a curse from the get-go, and should’ve never been greenlit. Boston’s fanbase should’ve been able to predict the disastrous second-round exit as soon as the team put those ugly things on.

Sheesh. 

Essentially, the designers had nowhere to go except up this season.

They did that, for sure. How high up did they go, though?

Well, for starters, you may have noticed that the written description of these unis didn’t include the color green. It’s a bit odd for the Celtics to have no green at all in a design, right?

The first thing that comes to mind when I look at it is the New Orleans Saints. Maybe Vanderbilt University? It’s too bad Luke Kornet isn’t on the team anymore to rock the colors of his alma mater.

Despite the lack of green, it’s not a bad jersey by any means. I’m sure that whenever the official release happens, it’ll come with a brief paragraph describing the lore behind the design, which will likely tie the gold to the franchise’s record 18 NBA Championships.

The black accent is strange, though. Designers could’ve easily replaced that with a dark green and made these feel more like Celtics uniforms.

With that being said, I’d probably give these a 6/10. Not bad, not great either.

This leak could lead to a massive win for the Celtics down the line

Celtics-wise, the design is pretty similar to the famed St. Patrick’s uniforms, with the main difference being the white base instead of the old green one.

As Barstool Sports’ Dan Greenberg aptly pointed out, the leak is a massive tease for those of us who have been awaiting the return of the St. Pat’s jerseys.

Stop teasing us and give the people what we want!! https://t.co/CtLuLSBhMm pic.twitter.com/1RgKvu4DgU

Now, there’s no guarantee, but Nike does like to recolor some designs year to year. For example, the Miami Heat received three or four different colorways of their “Vice City” uniforms. Should they pursue the same idea with Boston’s new threads, maybe they’d release the design with a green base.

For now, I’ll just keep dreaming.
