Seahawks running back Christine Michael is making a strong impression during OTA workouts, reports ESPN.

The report says Michael is getting plenty of reps since Marshawn Lynch has elected to skip OTAs so far, and Michael is making the most of it. Coach Pete Carroll has walked up to Michael a few times after his runs to give him high fives and let him know how much he appreciates what Michael is doing in practice.

Michael is expected to be No. 2 on the depth chart behind Lynch this season.
