Bailey ready for chance to be Chancellor's replacement
Having never played in an NFL game, Bailey is set to make his debut on Sunday when the Seattle Seahawks open the season at St. Louis.
Bailey is about to begin his second NFL season as an unlikely starter, capping a rapid rise up the Seahawks depth chart.
Chancellor spoke with NFL Network on Wednesday and indicated he's not seeking new money this year, but wants money moved from 2017 to 2016 in his contract.
The strong safety also must be able to cover tight ends and backs coming out of the backfield in the pass game.
Working with the Seahawks starting defense through the preseason only boosted his confidence.
[...] I found out the same thing I was able to do in college I'll be able to do in the league and that was a huge boost to my confidence and a huge thing playing defensive back in this league.
Seattle released Robert Turbin after reaching an injury settlement with the backup running back.
