    , but never played for the Seahawks after suffering
    injuries in an ATV accident that summer and was released this March after two
    years on the non-football injury list.The Seahawks are now trying recoup
    McDowell’s signing bonus. Matt Charboneau of the reports that the team has filed
    suit in the U.S. District Court in the Eastern District of Michigan that alleges
    McDowell has failed to pay back $799,238 of that bonus.Per the suit, an
    arbitrator ruled in February that McDowell’s ATV use represented a breach of his
    contract and called on the defensive lineman to repay his signing bonus of
    $1,599,238. The Seahawks recouped $800,000 by not paying McDowell’s salary for
    the 2018 season.McDowell’s agent said in March that other doctors have cleared
    him to resume his football career. McDowell met with the Cowboys, but remains
    unsigned. SEATTLE (AP) — The last time the Los Angeles Rams visited Seattle,
    they were announcing themselves as the new powerhouse in the NFC West by handing
    the Seahawks a drubbing unlike any they had experienced in Pete Carroll’s
    tenure.As much as the Seahawks would like to forget that day last December, a
    42-7 loss to a division rival lingers.Less than a year later, the Rams are more
    than just the favorites of their division. A quarter through the season, they
    may be the prohibitive Super Bowl favorites. The Rams (4-0) make their annual
    trip to Seattle on Sunday looking to take control of the division just five
    weeks into the season.“I think there’s definitely a lot of confidence that comes
    with playing well and definitely can get some momentum going, but I think we’re
    just executing,” Rams quarterback Jared Goff said. “We’ve done a pretty good job
    executing.”And there is little reason not to believe Los Angeles will be leaving
    town with a three-game lead.The Rams are scoring an absurd amount of points,
    having scored at least 33 points in all four games. Goff is coming off a
    career-high 465 yards passing and five
    TDs Will Dissly Color

    , carving up a Minnesota defense that was regarded as among
    the best in the NFL and posting a perfect passer rating in the process. Cooper
    Kupp, Robert Woods and Brandin Cooks each had 100 yards receiving against the
    Vikings.Oh, and there’s still Todd Gurley, who the last time he saw the Seahawks
    rushed for 152 yards and scored a career-high four total touchdowns. And this
    time, they’ll be facing a Seahawks defense without safety Earl Thomas after
    suffering a season-ending lower leg fracture last week against Arizona.“Not
    having Earl now, this week changes a lot and just how good he is at
    understanding offenses and concepts,” Goff said. “You wish he was there, you
    want to get them at full strength with him as part of that and how good he is.
    Would have been great to compete against him.”The Seahawks (2-2) have recovered
    from a 0-2 start by knocking off Dallas and Arizona in consecutive weeks. The
    Seahawks have rediscovered their run game with consecutive 100-yard rushers and
    their defense has held three straight opponents to under 305 total yards of
    offense.But they know the Rams are a different challenge.“They’re going to do
    something that we haven’t seen before, but if we’re disciplined and we do what
    we practiced, we should be fine,” Seattle linebacker Bobby Wagner said. “That’s
    why your eyes are so important this week.”Here’s what else to watch for:FIRST
    THINGS FIRSTSlowing the Rams’ powerhouse offense on first down would be huge for
    the Seahawks, but it’s been almost impossible this season. Goff is an
    astonishing 46 of 56 for 668 yards and six touchdown passes on first downs in
    the Rams’ first four games, averaging 11.9 yards per pass. Add in Gurley’s
    steady running on every down, and Los Angeles is tough to contain.“We’ve done a
    pretty good job so far (of) staying in
    second-and-manageable Michael
    Dickson Color Rush Jersey
    , and then third-and-manageable, as well,” Goff
    said.RUNNING OPTIONSSeattle is coming off consecutive 100-yard performances by
    running backs for the first time since the 2014 season. But it was two different
    backs accomplishing that feat, leaving open the question of how Seattle divides
    the carries going forward. Starter Chris Carson is expected to return Sunday
    after missing last week with a hip injury. Mike Davis has earned a role after
    rushing for a career-high 101 yards and two TDs in the win over Arizona. And,
    rookie first-round pick Rashaad Penny has started to look more like the back
    Seattle expected in a limited role.Running won’t be easy against a Rams defense
    giving up just 86 yards per game on average.TEDRIC TIMESecond-year safety Tedric
    Thompson knows he’s about to get a lot of attention. Thompson will be stepping
    in at free safety replacing Thomas after the former All-Pro was lost for the
    season in last week’s win. Thompson gained plenty of experience in the offseason
    and training camp when Thomas was holding out as part of a contract dispute, but
    there couldn’t be a tougher team to debut against than the top passing offense
    in the NFL through four weeks.“He’s really mature about stuff, he’s really
    worked hard to understand the scheme and the principles of what we want and he
    plays really strict and disciplined football,” Carroll said.TEMPORARY
    KICKERKicker Cairo Santos will make his Rams debut in Seattle. Los Angeles
    signed the former Chiefs kicker Tuesday after cutting Sam Ficken and determining
    that All-Pro Greg Zuerlein isn’t quite ready to return from a groin
    injury.Santos, who injured his own groin twice last season, is getting his shot
    at an NFL return in a high-pressure rivalry game, but he welcomes the
    challenge.“Coming out and playing for a great offense, hopefully I’ll get a
    bunch of kicks and show the other 31 teams that I’m back and I belong in this
    league,” Santos said.
