Inks deal with Seattle
Tue, May 5, 2026, 3:43 PM
The Seahawks signed Fowler to a one-year contract Tuesday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: The deal is worth up to $5 million. Fowler will turn 32 years old later this summer and is headed into his 12th season out of the University of Florida. He appeared in all 17 regular-season games with the Cowboys last season, making 11 starts, but recorded just 3.0 sacks as a sub-package edge rusher while playing 32 percent of the defensive snaps. In Seattle, he'll provide depth behind DeMarcus Lawrence, Uchenna Nwosu and Derick Hall. |

Signs with Seahawks

Seattle signed Wentz as an undrafted free agent Friday.
Analysis: Wentz began his collegiate career with Old Dominion before transferring to Kansas. As a senior with the Jayhawks, he tallied 16 catches for 258 yards and two touchdowns. Wentz is 6-foot-2, 205 pounds and is a former defensive back who plays with plenty of physicality. He may need some time to further develop as a wideout, making him a longshot to open the season on Seattle's NFL roster. |

Lance Mason Lance Mason Secures deal with Seattle
Fri, May 1, 2026, 6:46 PM
Mason signed with the Seahawks as an undrafted free agent Friday.
Analysis: Mason is coming off a senior season with Wisconsin during which he caught 30 passes for 398 yards and four touchdowns. Prior to that, he spent his first three campaigns at Missouri State. Mason is 6-foot-3 with reliable hands, but he isn't particularly quick or agile. Seattle's tight-end corps is led by AJ Barner and Elijah Arroyo, and Mason may be headed for a spot on the practice squad. |

The Seahawks signed Briscoe as an undrafted free agent Friday.
Analysis: Briscoe ended his collegiate career with Cal Poly by reeling in 43 catches for 779 yards and seven touchdowns. He stands 6-foot-2 and has demonstrated good linear speed for a wideout. Briscoe is a longshot to make Seattle's initial NFL roster but could be given a chance to develop on the practice squad. |

Harrison Bryant Harrison Bryant Joining defending champs
Wed, Apr 29, 2026, 7:14 PM
Seattle signed Bryant on Wednesday, Ari Horton of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Analysis: The details of the deal are unknown at this point, but Bryant fits with the Seahawks' recent approach of seeking out hard-nosed tight ends. 2024 fourth-rounder AJ Barner, 2025 second-rounder Elijah Arroyo and veteran Eric Saubert are all likely to make Seattle's 53-man roster to start the 2026 season, but there's a decent chance the team keeps four tight ends, meaning one of Bryant or Nick Kallerup could potentially make the opening roster too. |

Selected by Seattle

The Seahawks selected Dansby in the seventh round of the 2026 NFL Draft, 255th overall.
Analysis: Not that it's unusual for late seventh-round picks, but Dansby was well off the NFL Draft radar after playing three seasons at San Jose State and one at Arizona, all of them unremarkable. At a listed 5-foot-11, 185 pounds, Dansby didn't participate in pre-draft athletic testing, so his skill set and tools grade both are question marks at best. Perhaps the Seahawks saw something in Dansby's special teams upside. |

The Seahawks selected Eastern in the seventh round of the 2026 NFL Draft, 242nd overall.
Analysis: Eastern was a full-time starter at defensive tackle in each of his last three seasons at Minnesota. He was named an All-Big Ten Honorable Mention in 2025 after posting 38 total tackles, including 2.5 sacks, one forced fumble and one pass defense across 13 games. Eastern has an intimidating 6-foot-5, 315-pound frame that makes him an intriguing development project for the Seahawks, who will certainly work with the 23-year-old on his technique and instinct to develop him into an NFL-caliber defensive lineman. |

The Seahawks selected Fuller in the seventh round of the 2026 NFL Draft, 236th overall.
Analysis: Fuller (6-foot-1, 200 pounds) spent the first two years of his collegiate career at the FCS level before transferring to Toledo in 2022, and it wasn't until his fourth season with the Rockets that he stepped into a starting role. A safety-turned-cornerback, Fuller boasts a desirable frame for his position and logged a solid 4.49 40-yard dash at the NFL Combine, and starting his career behind outside corners Devon Witherspoon and Josh Jobe is sufficient to allow the rookie seventh-rounder time to develop. Fuller's combination of size and speed could help him carve out a role on special teams early on. |

The Seahawks selected Henderson in the sixth round of the 2026 NFL Draft, 199th overall.
Analysis: Henderson (6-foot-1, 185 pounds) might be a better bet to make a roster than most other sixth-round rookie receiver selections, because Henderson is fully expected to stand out as a special-teams gunner. Henderson was a known special-teams presence even while he was a backup wideout at Alabama, but Henderson managed to log an encouraging season of wideout production in his one year at Kansas. The selection of Henderson might be a bad sign for 2025 seventh-round pick Ricky White, who was also largely selected for his special-teams ability. |

The Seahawks selected Stephens in the fifth round of the 2026 NFL Draft, 148th overall.
Analysis: The Seahawks sent a 2027 fourth-round pick to the Browns for this pick. Stephens was a three-year starter at Iowa and didn't allow a sack as a senior. He played at left guard at Iowa but did take some snaps at center at the Senior Bowl. Stephens should provide depth to the Seahawks' interior offensive line. However, his upside is ultimately limited by his below-average athleticism. After all, he had the shortest arms and smallest hands at the NFL Combine, and his 5.35-second 40-yard dash left plenty to be desired. |

The Seahawks selected Neal in the third round of the 2026 NFL Draft, 99th overall.
Analysis: Neal is a standout athlete at 6-foot-2, 203 pounds with a 4.49-second 40, 40-inch vertical and 134-inch broad jump, but it's a red flag that he played four years at Fresno State and never earned a starting role. He did start for Arkansas as a fifth-year player, but a very safe general rule is that anyone who can't start in four years isn't an NFL starter. If Neal emerges as a viable starter in Seattle, it would be very impressive on the part of coach Mike Macdonald. |

The Seahawks selected Clark in the second round of the 2026 NFL Draft, 64th overall.
Analysis: Clark (6-foot-1, 188 pounds) boasts experience as a four-year starter at TCU plus significant versatility, having lined up in the box, at free safety and in the slot over the course of his collegiate career. Across his tenure as a starter with the Horned Frogs, Clark totaled 35 passes defensed including 15 interceptions. He also improved against the run over the last two seasons, totaling over 50 tackles in both 2024 and 2025. Clark, who will turn 25 years old in May, will likely contribute as the No. 3 man behind starting safeties Ty Okada and Julian Love in his rookie year. |

Zach Charbonnet Zach Charbonnet Team drafts RB in Round 1
Fri, Apr 24, 2026, 9:41 AM
Charbonnet (knee) will face increased competition for touches once he recovers from a torn ACL, as Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports that the Seahawks drafted Jadarian Price 32nd overall Thursday,
Analysis: The Seahawks lost running back Kenneth Walker in free agency but didn't take long to draft Walker's replacement, using the final selection of Thursday's first round on Price out of Notre Dame. Charbonnet split carries with Walker during the 2025 regular season, but Walker took on a workhorse role after Charbonnet tore his ACL in the NFC divisional-round win over the 49ers. Charbonnet's recovery is likely to stretch into the 2026 regular season, but if he can regain his pre-injury form, he'll likely return to a platoon role in a Seahawks backfield that also includes Price, Emanuel Wilson and George Holani. |

George Holani George Holani Door not shut on backfield role
Fri, Apr 24, 2026, 9:34 AM
Holani could still have a role in Seattle's running back rotation even after the Seahawks drafted Jadarian Price 32nd overall Thursday, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Zach Charbonnet (knee) is likely to miss some regular-season action, leaving Price, Holani and Emanuel Wilson as the top healthy options in a Seahawks backfield that lost Kenneth Walker in free agency. Price had just 15 catches in three years at Notre Dame, so Holani has a clear path to carving out a role in passing situations, at least until Charbonnet returns. Holani had only two catches across 11 regular-season appearances in 2025 but added four receptions in two playoff contests. |

Emanuel Wilson Emanuel Wilson First-round RB added by Seattle
Fri, Apr 24, 2026, 9:31 AM
Wilson will face increased competition for touches after the Seahawks drafted Jadarian Price 32nd overall Thursday, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: All three of Wilson, Price and George Holani could play sizable roles early in the season while Zach Charbonnet works his way back from a torn ACL. The Seahawks signed Wilson and drafted Price after losing running back Kenneth Walker in free agency. Price is untested in a workhorse role, having backed up Jeremiyah Love at Notre Dame, so Seattle's likely to spread out the backfield workload between multiple options despite investing significant draft capital into Price. |

Thu, Apr 23, 2026, 10:10 PM
The Seahawks selected Price in the first round of the 2026 NFL Draft, 32nd overall.
Analysis: If Jeremiyah Love was Notre Dame's Darren McFadden then Price was their Felix Jones, providing consistent big plays off the bench and as a kick returner. Price is not quite as athletic at 5-foot-11, 203 pounds as Jones was out of Arkansas, but the general theme of big plays off the bench is the deal with Price. The unclear early-season availability of Zach Charbonnet (ACL) gives room for Price to make an immediate impact, and upon Charbonnet's eventual return a long-term workload split can be expected between him and Price not unlike the split between Charbonnet and Kenneth Walker previously. Price also might displace Rashid Shaheed from the kick return unit after returning three of his 22 collegiate kick returns for touchdowns (36.1 yards per return). |

Signs tender with champs
Mon, Apr 20, 2026, 5:31 PM
Okada signed his exclusive-rights tender with the Seahawks on Monday, John Boyle of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: Okada is set to make $1.145 million over the 2026 campaign. The safety had a breakout year in 2025, starting 11 games for the Seahawks' secondary during the regular season and helping to secure the team's second Super Bowl win in franchise history. While the exclusive-rights tender locks Okada into a one-year deal, it is likely the ascending defensive back will see a much larger payday after the 2026 season concludes. |

Zach Charbonnet Zach Charbonnet Expected to play in 2026
Mon, Mar 30, 2026, 12:59 PM
Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald declined to provide a specific estimate for the return of Charbonnet (ACL) on Monday but said "he's not going to miss the whole year," John Boyle of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: Macdonald said he expects WR Tory Horton (shin/groin) to be ready for the start of training camp but declined to link Charbonnet, who tore his right ACL in January and underwent surgery in February, to a similar timetable. Given the timing of Charbonnet's procedure, which carries a typical 8-to-12-month recovery, his status for both training camp and Week 1 have to be considered in serious doubt. However, GM John Schneider said in February that he "wouldn't put anything past [Charbonnet]" and that the running back's rehab prospects are "more optimistic than it was initially," Gregg Bell of The Tacoma News Tribune reports. During the early days of free agency, Seattle inked Emanuel Wilson to a one-year deal and extended George Holani an ERFA tender, but it wouldn't be surprising to see the team make further backfield additions with Kenneth Walker moving on to Kansas City via free agency. |

Tory Horton Tory Horton Expected to be ready for camp
Mon, Mar 30, 2026, 10:27 AM
Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald said Monday that Horton (shin/groin) is expected to be ready for the start of training camp, John Boyle of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: Horton won't be 100 percent healthy for spring activates due to his rehab from offseason surgery undergone to address the lower-body injuries that prevented him from suiting up after Week 9 of last season, but the 2025 fifth-round pick should be back on the field by late July. Across eight appearances as a rookie, Horton secured 13 of 23 targets for 161 yards and five touchdowns. |

Back with Seahawks
Wed, Mar 25, 2026, 11:55 AM
Seattle re-signed Surratt on Wednesday, Ari Horton of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: Surratt suited up for 11 regular-season games with the Seahawks last year before landing on IR with an ankle injury, totaling 11 tackles (four solo) in that span while primarily contributing on special teams. He was cleared to return in time for the team's win over New England in Super Bowl LX, though Surratt didn't ultimately play any snaps during that contest. |
