Seahawks vs Panthers game preview: It’s all in the trenches

Dre’Mont Jones has struggled thus far but is this finally the game he shows off his capabilities?

After being selected sixth overall in 2022 it was anticipated that Ekonwu would be able to step in and make an instant impact for this Carolina Panthers offensive line. Like Charles Cross, he has shown plenty of flashes, but he has also had his fair share of struggles. He is a fantastic run blocker in space which is something he will likely be tasked with doing with some regularity on Sunday. However, in pass pro he has his shortcomings and lapses in judgment.

On the second play we can see Ekonwu get beaten with a really simple swim move. The main reason it was so effective is because Ekonwu leaned forward too much and overshot to the outside on what was an inside run. When Ekonwu struggles in the running game, it is almost always on runs inside the tackles so the likes of Uchenna Nwosu and Darrell Taylor can be in for big days against the run.
