The Seahawks, including those on the bench, were pumped up and celebrated Wright's score. They, however, were penalized 15 yards for it, as noted by Tacoma News Tribune's Gregg Bell.
"Seahawks finally get the 'cost-of-doing-business' unsportsmanlike-conduct penalty for running off the bench to celebrate Jacardia Wright's 69-yard touchdown burst (in the) first quarter at Tennessee," wrote Bell on X.

"Most notably, Zach Charbonnet jogged off the sideline to join in. He's 26 in white here."
The first quarter ended with Seattle holding a sizable advantage , 16-3, with Jason Myers converting a 48-yard field goal after Wright's touchdown.
The score will definitely boost Wright's confidence and chances of making it to the 53-man roster. The second-year running back only appeared in one game last season. He went undrafted in 2025 out of Missouri State.
The Seahawks lost to the Dallas Cowboys , 17-7, in their preseason opener.
As of this writing, Seattle is still ahead of Tennessee, 16-6, in the second quarter.
