RENTON, Wash. (AP) – Terrell Owens has completed his first practice back in the NFL as a member of the Seattle Seahawks, a workout that featured some impressive catches and getting slammed to the turf by a new teammate.

SEATTLE (AP) – Washington has lost running back Deontae Cooper to yet another torn anterior cruciate ligament, the third time he has had the injury since becoming a member of the Huskies.

PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) – Terry Stotts says there a lot of good coaches who don’t have good records, and he hopes to show Portland fans that he’s one of them.
