Follow Field Gulls’ coverage of the 2025 Seattle Seahawks training camp.

It’s time for season two under Seattle Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald.

This has been an extraordinarily busy offseason for the Seahawks in terms of roster changes and coaching staff adjustments. While much of the defense and defensive staff remains intact, it’s a different story for the offense. Geno Smith, Tyler Lockett, DK Metcalf, and Noah Fant are among the major departures, while Ryan Grubb and Scott Huff have been replaced as offensive coordinator and offensive line coach, respectively. Sam Darnold and Cooper Kupp were the top FA acquisitions...

Seahawks film review: How secure is Noah Fant’s roster spot heading into preseason?

The Seahawks’ starting tight end has a year left on his contract, but it’s not a total lock that he’ll remain on the team entering the regular season.

Veteran tight end Noah Fant arrived in Seattle in the Russell Wilson trade. The idea was that he could achieve what was expected of him when he was drafted in the first round by the Denver Broncos. The change of scenery didn’t help much. Even so, his contract was renewed, and his production has been meager. He has 130 receptions, 1,400 yards, and only 5 TDs through three seasons with the Seattle...

3 Seahawks make ESPN’s annual survey of top 10 players by position

League coaches, scouts, and executives clearly didn’t think much of the Seahawks offense, but they had praise for the defense.

The Seattle Seahawks defense had considerable representation in this year’s edition of ESPN’s annual survey of top 10 players by position, as voted by league coaches, scouts, and executives. This is an upgrade from the 2024 offseason, when the Seahawks’ lone representative was Devon Witherspoon.

Who’s made this year’s list? We start off with the Big Cat himself, Leonard Williams. One ballot actually had him as high as No. 2.

Seahawks film review: Jarran Reed has become a pillar of Seattle’s defensive line

The veteran defensive tackle has been a key player since returning to Seattle in 2023.

In 2024, veteran Jarran Reed re-emerged as a versatile and impactful asset to the Seattle Seahawks’ defensive line. In his ninth year with the team, he played key roles in both the pass rush and containment against the run game—playing a technical and physical leadership role.

Jarran Reed’s production in 2024

According to PFF, among the 174 defensive tackles with at least 100 defensive snaps:

Defense Grade 70.6 (24th);

In the pass rush, he was 20th with a grade of 73.7 (19th), and in...
