SEATTLE (AP) — Seahawks top picks Russell Okung and Earl Thomas remained unsigned as Seattle’s rookies reported to training camp.

Yet their agents remain hopeful Thursday night that both will be on the field for Seattle’s first preseason practice on Saturday.

Peter Schaffer represents Okung, the sixth-overall pick and replacement for retired left tackle Walter Jones. Schaffer told The Associated Press on Wednesday he has been working every day for two weeks to get Okung at practice on Saturday.

And Andrew Kessler, the agent for 14th-overall pick Thomas, said earlier Thursday “we are making progress.”
