No joint practice for Seahawks at VMAC this year, says Mike Macdonald

The Seattle Seahawks went over three decades without doing joint practices during training camp. When Mike Macdonald arrived, Seattle changed course and had scrimmages ahead of road preseason games against the Tennessee Titans (2024) and Green Bay Packers (2025). What’s in store for 2026? Well, the Seahawks themselves haven’t served as joint practice hosts since […]

Seahawks News 5/27: Injury updates on several significant Seahawks

In Today’s Links: another look at the Seattle Seahawks’ salary cap situation, takeaways from the first day of OTAs, DeMarcus Lawrence is not at OTAs, words from Coach Macdonald, and a bit more. Thanks for being here with us at Field Gulls. Go, ‘Hawks! #np It Is Not Meant to Be by Tame Impala Seahawks […]

Mike Macdonald starts Seahawks OTAs with ‘good news’ on Tory Horton

The Seattle Seahawks began their voluntary organized team activities (OTAs) on Tuesday. Head coach Mike Macdonald spoke to media following practice, providing an encouraging injury update on Seattle’s promising wide receiver, Tory Horton. “Tory has made a lot of great strides,“ Coach Macdonald said. “Seems like we got some feedback that can really accelerate his […]

An early look at the 2027 Seahawks free agent class

The Seattle Seahawks had such a straightforward free agency period coming out of their Super Bowl winning season. Every free agent was accounted for well before the NFL Draft, and while there were some notable departures like Kenneth Walker III, Coby Bryant, Riq Woolen, and Boye Mafe, Seattle re-signed the majority of its players. We’re […]

Seahawks News 5/26: It’s Tuesday and the Seahawks are still champs

In Today’s Links: a couple looks at the Seattle Seahawks’ roster, now and in the future; the possibility that our squad aquires Myles Garrett (do you even want to do this trade?); also, let’s keep Olu. The rumors are the story and training camp starts soon. Just a few more days and the ball will […]

Devon Witherspoon, Seahawks ‘do not yet appear to be close to an agreement’

The Seattle Seahawks wasted little time getting a contract extension done with Jaxon Smith-Njigba, who’s now the NFL’s highest paid receiver. It’s a slightly different (but, for now, not particularly concerning) story for All-Pro cornerback and fellow 2023 first-round pick, Devon Witherspoon. ESPN’s Brady Henderson shared his latest Seahawks notebook over the weekend, with Witherspoon’s […]

Which Seahawks are under the most pressure entering 2026?

Fresh off of a Super Bowl, it may seem silly to think that anyone on the Seattle Seahawks roster is under pressure. However, the opposite may be true. The Seahawks or no longer the hunter; they are now “the hunted.” Each team will be looking at Seattle as the measuring stick for where they all […]

Seahawks News 5/25: Michael Dickson always deserves his flowers

In Today’s Links: if the ‘Hawks make a trade, Bumpus has his eye on Anthony Bradford (amongst others), another look at the possibility that the new owner of our beloved Seattle Seahawks will want to build a new stadium, the Devon Witherspoon contract question, and a little bit more. Another news cycle brings us one […]

Seattle Seahawks 53-man roster projection: Pre-OTAs edition

The Seattle Seahawks begin their voluntary Organized Team Activities (OTAs) next Tuesday, bringing us another step closer to a new NFL season. With Seattle retaining so many players from its Super Bowl championship season, then adding more talent through the draft, this is going to be an extraordinarily difficult process to get from 90 to […]

Seahawks News 5/23: Rockin’ B-Sides on the Seahawks roster

In Today’s Links: more on Beau Stephens and his chances of starting for our beloved Seattle Seahawks, how our squad sleeps, Seahawks fans from around the globe, the long snapper gets some flowers, and a little bit more. Happy Saturday. Hope you all are well. Thanks for being here. Go, ‘Hawks! #np Hessa by El […]

Why the Seahawks made Aidan Hubbard their priority UDFA signing

One of the biggest questions surrounding the Seattle Seahawks draft entering the weekend was whether the team would add an EDGE defender — or at least when they would finally address the position. Seattle brought several edge rushers in for top-30 visits, but even after turning four picks into eight through trade-downs, Seattle never selected […]

Seahawks’ Sam Darnold: ‘I totally understand’ why Vikings didn’t keep me

Last offseason, the Minnesota Vikings were faced with a conundrum. With their first-round pick quarterback, JJ McCarthy, fully healed, they had to choose between sitting their future and rocking with journeyman Sam Darnold or betting it all on the sophomore’s shoulders. Everyone reading this knows they put all their chips in the McCarthy basket and […]

The Seahawks didn’t draft one type of player in 2026, and that’s the point

For years, the Seattle Seahawks built a clear draft identity around experience. Seattle consistently leaned toward seniors, team captains, older prospects, and players with massive collegiate résumés. The franchise historically valued maturity, durability, leadership, and prospects who had already accumulated years of starting reps before entering the NFL. That has been changing for a few […]

Seahawks News 5/22: Seahawks still the best in the NFL, some say

In Today’s Links: the Derick Hall contract situation, a quick look into the future regarding the 53-man roster, Brian Fleury’s new offense, and a smidge more. We are rocking and rolling, one day closer to pre-season football, which should be a fun watch this year. Take a look at the links nd add to the […]

Los Angeles Rams commit to Matthew Stafford beyond 2026

If you thought that the Los Angeles Rams drafting quarterback Ty Simpson in the first round of the 2026 NFL Draft was a sign that Matthew Stafford’s career was quickly coming to an end, I have some bad news for you… Looks like there will be two more seasons of Stafford vs Seattle. I think […]

Can the Seattle Seahawks build the NFL’s next dynasty?

The Seattle Seahawks enter the 2026 NFL season as Super Bowl champions, albeit not necessarily favorites to repeat like we saw with their 2013 predecessors. When the Legion of Boom era Seahawks smashed up the Denver Broncos, it looked like the pieces were in place to beat the NFL’s next dynasty. It didn’t quite happen […]

Seahawks News 5/21: Several DB positions for Seahawks up for grabs

In Today’s Links: Seaside Joe takes a look at the monolith that is becoming Bryon Murphy, a bit on the sale of our beloved Seattle Seahawks, a look down the road at our squad’s 2026 draft class, and a dash more. Happy Thursday. Go, ‘Hawks! #np Better Git It In Your Soul by Charles Mingus […]

Seahawks assistant GM Nolan Teasley gets second interview for Vikings job

The Minnesota Vikings’ search for their next general manager rolls along… and has lingered a bit in the Pacific Northwest. After firing Kwesi Adofo-Mensah at the end of January, the team in the Twin Cities is still looking for the head man for the big front office role. Adofo-Mensah was released by the team, speculatively, […]

Seahawks, Cowboys could hold joint practice at VMAC

One significant change in the Seattle Seahawks’ training camps under Mike Macdonald has been the re-introduction of joint practices, which the team hadn’t done since the early 1990s. In 2024, the Seahawks held two scrimmages with the Tennessee Titans before their preseason game in Nashville, and last year they had a single joint practice with […]

Seahawks News 5/20: Jaxon Smith-Njigba and the disrespect

In Today’s Links: the Seattle Seahawks’ moment has arrived, again; position group battles, another look at the 2026 schedule for our squad, and a little bit more. The pace is slowed, but not our passions. Dive in and get the most out of the least. We appreciate your patronage. Thanks for being here. Go, ‘Hawks! […]
