The 2026 season will be the Seattle Seahawks' 51st in the National Football League (NFL), their 17th under the leadership of general manager John Schneider and their third under head coach Mike Macdonald. They will enter the season as the defending Super Bowl champions and hope to improve or match their 14–3 record from the previous season, make the playoffs in consecutive seasons for the first time since 2018–2020, and repeat as Super Bowl champions. This season will begin with the team's fourth offensive coordinator in as many seasons, as their previous offensive coordinator, Klint Kubiak, departed to become the Las Vegas Raiders' head coach.
The team's training camp and preseason is set to be featured on Hard Knocks.[1]
