Devon Witherspoon Fantasy Stats

The Seattle Seahawks and cornerback Devon Witherspoon have agreed to a record-setting four-year, $132 million contract extension, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. Per Schefter, the contract includes over $101 million guaranteed and will make Witherspoon the highest-paid cornerback in NFL history. The fifth overall pick in the 2023 NFL Draft, Witherspoon has established himself as one of the best defensive players in the league and was a critical part of the Seahawks' run to the Super Bowl in 2025. The 25-year-old has made the Pro Bowl in each of his first three NFL seasons and was named second-team All-Pro in 2025. Across 12 games last season, he recorded 48 solo tackles, seven passes defensed, and one interception. With this new extension agreement, Witherspoon will continue to lead Seattle's secondary for the foreseeable future.

With the Seattle Seahawks scheduled to hold their first training camp practice this Saturday, the team is reportedly in discussions with three-time Pro Bowl cornerback Devon Witherspoon about an extension that would make him the highest-paid defensive back in the league, per NFL Insider Ian Rapoport. The four-year extension signed by All-Pro Trent McDuffie following his trade to the Rams pays him an average annual salary of $31 million, and Rapoport believes that number could come in around $32 million per year for Witherspoon. It's important to note that Witherspoon shares an agent with New England Patriots star corner Christian Gonzalez, who is also seeking an extension ahead of his fourth season, so Witherspoon's eventual reign as the league's highest-paid cornerback may not last long.

The Seattle Seahawks announced on Friday that they exercised cornerback Devon Witherspoon's fifth-year option, according to Brady Henderson of ESPN. The Seahawks have tried to work out an extension this offseason with the former first-rounder from 2023. OverTheCap.com projects Witherspoon's fifth-year option for 2027 to come in at around $21.2 million since he's made the Pro Bowl three times. He has a strong case to be the position's highest-paid player if he reaches an extension with Seattle. The 25-year-old has been a Pro Bowler in each of his three seasons after Seattle took him fifth overall in 2023 out of Illinois. Witherspoon has a total of 249 tackles (170 solo), 4.5 sacks, 16 tackles for loss, nine QB hits, two interceptions (one returned for a touchdown), seven pass breakups, and a fumble recovery in his 43 games (42 starts) for the Seahawks. He was a big reason Seattle's defense was one of the best in the league in their run to a Super Bowl championship last season.

Seattle Seahawks rookie cornerback Devon Witherspoon (hip) is officially active for Sunday's game against the Pittsburgh Steelers. He had been listed as questionable and will ultimately return following a two-game absence. The Seahawks' secondary will benefit from the return of this young playmaker who has 65 tackles, three sacks, one forced fumble, and one interception through 12 games.

Seattle Seahawks cornerback Devon Witherspoon (hip) is officially inactive for Sunday's game against the Tennessee Titans. He had been listed as questionable but was not expected to play after missing practice on Friday. Indeed, the rookie sensation is set to miss his second consecutive contest. The Seahawks' secondary could have trouble replacing the young playmaker who has 65 tackles, three sacks, one forced fumble, and one interception through 12 games. With that said, Mike Jackson and Tre Brown should earn more snaps in his absence.

Seattle Seahawks cornerback Devon Witherspoon (back) is questionable to return to Sunday's NFC West meeting with the 49ers. He didn't last long, suffering a back injury in the first quarter. Hopefully, it's nothing serious, considering the 22-year-old is one of the top defenders on the depth chart.

Seattle Seahawks cornerback Devon Witherspoon (hamstring) is not expected to play against the Los Angeles Rams in Week 1, per NFL.com's Ian Rapoport. His NFL debut will have to wait another week. Tre Brown or Mike Jackson should handle additional snaps until Witherspoon is healthy enough to return.

Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll said that rookie first-round cornerback Devon Witherspoon (hamstring) remains in "rehab" and didn't give a timetable for his return. The head coach also said Witherspoon will be back in the race for the starting left cornerback job once he gets on the field. The 22-year-old has been dealing with a lingering hamstring injury since Aug. 7, but he's expected to get back on the field soon. Whether that gives him enough time to get ready for the regular season opener in Week 1 remains to be seen. When he's fully healthy, Witherspoon should occupy a pretty big role in Seattle's secondary in his first NFL season, but fantasy managers in IDP leagues should be looking for more proven options at the position in their drafts.

The Seattle Seahawks and first-round rookie cornerback Devon Witherspoon agreed to terms on a four-year, $31.86 million fully guaranteed deal on Friday that includes a $20.2 million signing bonus, according to a source. The fifth overall pick of this year's NFL draft becomes the last first-rounder to get a deal done. The 22-year-old defensive back held out of the first two days of training camp in order to get his deal worked out, but he'll now be available to get to work this summer. He is an elite corner prospect with size, and he should start immediately in Seattle in 2023 across from Tariq Woolen. Witherspoon may not be an asset in IDP fantasy leagues immediately, but he will make the Seahawks secondary formidable right away.

Seattle Seahawks rookie cornerback Devon Witherspoon has yet to sign his rookie deal with the organization, so he is not expected to be on the field for the start of training camp. The two sides have failed to agree on a contract up to this point and he won't take the field until they do so. Witherspoon was selected with the No. 5 overall pick in the 2023 NFL Draft after earning consensus All-American honors in his final season at Illinois. Surely, a deal will be reached at some point during camp, so there shouldn't be too much concern of an extended absence just yet.
