SEATTLE – The Seahawks were breathing a significant sigh of relief Monday as imaging results on the knee of left guard Grey Zabel showed no significant injury, coach Mike Macdonald said during his regular day-after-game meeting with the media.

Even in losses, big games can prove big points.

INGLEWOOD, Calif. – What will get the most attention from Sunday’s 21-19 loss to the Rams, in which Seahawks quarterback Sam Darnold threw four interceptions, is the message teammate Ernest Jones IV sent defending him.

It was an underwhelming week for locally produced NFL players. For Cooper Kupp (Eastern Washington), it was a disappointing return to the city that launched his pro career.

SEATTLE – Kenny Easley, whose hard hitting and playmaking earned him the nickname “The Enforcer” and defined the first great era of Seahawks football in the 1980s, died Friday, the Pro Football Hall of Fame announced.

Kudos to Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald for playing it somewhat cool when asked to gauge the importance of this week’s game against division rival Los Angeles Rams.

Sunday figures to be emotional for Cooper Kupp. The Seahawks receiver says his first return to Los Angeles to play the Rams since the team released him last March won’t be personal. Sure, deep down, Kupp probably will want to reinforce to the Rams that he still has some good football left in him. It’s only human nature. 

SEATTLE – The Seahawks have become a cliché in the best possible way.

SEATTLE – Three instant takeaways after the Seahawks thumped the Cardinals 44-22 for their fourth straight victory:

SEATTLE – As a reminder, this season’s Super Bowl is in Santa Clara. Feb. 8.

SEATTLE – There was hardly a cloud in the sky and the temperature was a balmy 59 degrees at the 1:05 p.m. kickoff.

After biding his time and playing limited reps off the bench for the New England Patriots for nine weeks, Kyle Williams (Washington State) had a breakthrough Sunday, introducing himself to the NFL world with one of the weekend’s top highlights.

The Seattle Seahawks’ 2025 NFL draft class proved so dominant in Sunday’s 38-14 win over the Washington Commanders that defensive back Nick Emmanwori decided to give it a name — Rookie Takeover.

SEATTLE – Many Seahawks have seemed convinced from the beginning that the 2025 season could be one to remember.

RENTON, Wash. – Would he play? If so, how many snaps?

Whether you’re a veteran general manager or an X warrior with a cat avatar — it’s virtually impossible to immediately evaluate a trade. What sounds incredible at the time is often a failure; what sounds ridiculous at the time is often a success.

The message the Seahawks sent once the 2025 NFL trade deadline passed?

Sam Darnold no longer sees ghosts. He does the haunting, rather than being haunted. He played a key role in making Northwest Stadium a house of horrors Sunday night for the Washington Commanders, their fans and their defense, only two days late for Halloween.

LANDOVER, Md. – At times it was almost hard to tell which was piling up quicker during the first half Sunday night against the Washington Commanders – points scored by the Seahawks or consecutive completions thrown by quarterback Sam Darnold.
