Follow our 2024 Seattle Seahawks offseason roster tracker!
A new era begins for the Seattle Seahawks.
After 14 years of Pete Carroll serving as both head coach and Executive Vice President of Football Operations, the reins have been handed over. Mike Macdonald is the new coach, while John Schneider adds President of Football Operations to his existing role as general manager.
The Seahawks finished 9-8 for a second consecutive season, but this time they did not get the help required to make the playoffs. Schneider believed the team underachieved, and obviously ownership felt changes need to be made. There are still changes to come to the Seahawks roster in the offseason, but to what extent and to which positions?
Geno Smith’s contract restructure and guaranteed salary make him more likely than not to be Seattle’s starting quarterback next season, but there’s still a chance he could be traded. His backup, Drew Lock, is an unrestricted free agent. Will Schneider re-sign him in the same role, or perhaps look to him as the next starter?
The most prominent free agent names are linebackers Jordyn Brooks and Bobby Wagner, as well as defensive lineman Leonard Williams. Seattle doesn’t have a second-round pick because of the Williams trade, so it’ll be interesting to see what the team does with ‘Big Cat.’
In the NFL Draft (Apr 25-27), the Seahawks are set to have seven picks, including a pair of third-rounders. They’re slated to be on the clock at No. 16 overall.

WEST SEATTLE WEATHER: Warm day, but far below record
Thanks to Carrie Brown for the westward view of our Saturday night sunset. The high today hit 68 at the airport – eight degrees above normal – but nowhere near the record for this date, which was 89 degrees back in 2016. The forecast suggests two more days of partly sunny, almost-70-degree weather, before the chance of rain returns.

Mets place former Seattle Mariners 2B/DH Jorge Polanco on IL
CHICAGO (AP) — The struggling New York Mets placed former Seattle Mariners second baseman/designated hitter Jorge Polanco on the 10-day injured list on Saturday with a right wrist contusion.
Mariners Injury Update: Latest on Robles, Vargas and more
The move was made retroactive to Wednesday, a day after Polanco went 0 for 4 with two strikeouts in a 2-1 loss at the Los Angeles Dodgers. The 32-year-old Polanco is batting .179 (10 for 56) with a homer and two RBIs in his first season with New York, which has lost nine straight.
“When doctors first took a look at him, it looked like he got hit by a pitch when he didn’t,” manager Carlos Mendoza said. “In talking to him, it was just a couple of swings that he took that night. … He didn’t think much of it, but just got worse the following day.
“So you just got to let it calm down a little bit and then we’ll go from there. But we don’t have a timetable for how long this is going to last.”
Polanco, who signed a two-year, $40 million contract with the Mets in December, also has been dealing with an ankle issue.
“He was trending in the right direction,” Mendoza said of the ankle injury. “It’s definitely going to help, obviously now with him being shut down. But the biggest thing now is that we’ve got to take care of that wrist.”
Polanco spent the previous two seasons with the Mariners, who acquired him in a February 2024 trade with the Minnesota Twins.
Polanco struggled during his first season with Seattle in 2024, hitting just .213 with 16 homers in 118 games while playing through a knee injury that didn’t become public knowledge until after the season.
But after the Mariners somewhat surprisingly brought him back for a one-year contract in 2025, Polanco rebounded to hit .265 with 26 homers and an .821 OPS in 138 games last season. He then added three homers during Seattle’s playoff run, along with a 15th-inning walkoff single in Game 5 of the American League Division Series that sent the Mariners to their first ALCS in 24 years.
