Seattle Seahawks launch title‑defense with training camp and 2026 TV schedule
The Seattle Seahawks entered the 2026 season as defending Super Bowl champions after defeating the New England Patriots in Super Bowl LX, their first championship since 2014. Their schedule features a franchise‑record six primetime games and will be carried regionally on FOX and CBS affiliates, with national broadcasts on ESPN, NBC and Amazon Prime Video. The season opens with a Week 1 rematch against the Patriots and includes a Christmas‑night matchup with the Los Angeles Rams.
Training camp opens next weekend at the VMAC in Renton, Washington, with the first practice scheduled for 1 p.m. on Saturday. Ten camp sessions will be open to the public. Key storylines include a potential long‑term contract extension for cornerback Devon Witherspoon that could make him the highest‑paid at his position, a new deal for wide receiver Jaxon Smith‑Njigba, and the ongoing ownership transition from the Paul G. Allen estate to the Khosla family. On offense, the team will determine its new lead running back after the departure of Kenneth Walker III.
The Seahawks aim to become the 10th franchise to repeat as Super Bowl champions while navigating these roster and business developments.
