Seattle Seahawks right guard Grey Zabel endured a difficult first start at his new position, according to a report from Seahawks Wire. The offensive lineman, who was moved to right guard, struggled significantly in his initial game action at the spot.
The performance raises questions about the team's offensive line configuration moving forward. Zabel's transition to the interior comes as the Seahawks continue to search for the right combination up front to protect their quarterback and establish the run game.
Further evaluation will be needed to determine whether the struggles were indicative of a longer adjustment period or a mismatch at the position. The coaching staff will likely review the film closely before making any additional lineup changes.
