The NFC West features a 49ers side that should again compete for at least a playoff spot, the reigning Super Bowl champion Seahawks and a Rams team that is downright scary on paper after it acquired superstar Myles Garrett.
JSN is as good as it gets when it comes to the receiver position, but the Seahawks really need someone to step up behind him. Jaxon Smith-Njigba is the heart and soul of the Seattle Seahawks’ passing attack and he’s needed more than ever after Kenneth Walker III left during free agency.
The Seahawks are returning most of their starters from last season’s Super Bowl-winning roster, but safety is one of the few exceptions. After Coby Bryant left in free agency for the Bears’ three-year, $40MM offer, Ty Okada and second-round rookie Bud Clark are vying to take over for him, according to Brady Henderson of ESPN.
George Kittle isn’t running away from the fact that the Seahawks won a Super Bowl in the 49ers’ stadium, and he’s sending a message to them and the rest of the league ahead of the 2026 season.
The Seahawks wasted no time rewarding reigning Offensive Player of the Year Jaxon Smith-Njigba with the biggest wide receiver contract in NFL history this offseason.
The Bucs have some rookies that have generated some real hype in pass-rushing outside linebacker Rueben Bain Jr. and Ted Hurst, a real tantalizing talent at wide receiver.
During a recent appearance on the "Bussin' With the Boys" podcast, Darnold revealed that he recently spoke with Kubiak at the Seahawks' championship ring ceremony about Mendoza and Cousins.
Before signing with the Seattle Seahawks, Darnold was one of the most intriguing quarterbacks on the free-agent market following a career-best season with the Minnesota Vikings.
For a piece published on Thursday, NFL insider Albert Breer of Sports Illustrated suggested that Darnold should be hoping Mayfield gets paid in a big way this summer.
The Seattle Seahawks know exactly how hard it is to win back-to-back Super Bowls, just ask Pete Carroll. Only two teams have managed to do so since the turn of the millennium, with the New England Patriots and the Kansas City Chiefs holding that title.
