BREAKING: No Seahawks Kickoff This Weekend, Here Is What Comes Next
The Divisional Round is rolling, but Seattle is on the sideline. I confirmed this morning that the Seahawks are not scheduled to play this weekend. If you are scanning the grid for a kickoff, there is no Seahawks game on today’s slate. That means the focus in Seattle shifts to the calendar, the roster, and the moves that shape the next run.
Are the Seahawks playing this weekend?
Short answer, no. The league slate for the Divisional Round is set, and Seattle is not listed. There is no late flex, no surprise window, and no primetime slot waiting to pop. When the bracket narrows to eight, the schedule is locked. That leaves fans with a simple plan. Watch the matchups, track the NFC path, and keep an eye on what that means for Seattle in the months ahead.
If Seattle is not on the Divisional Round board, there is no Seahawks broadcast today.
How to verify TV times and where to watch
If you want to double check your guide, use official listings. The club page and the league page refresh in real time, and network partners post windows and announcer crews as soon as they are assigned.
TV and streaming checkpoints
- Seahawks.com for the team calendar and any updates
- NFL.com for complete weekly slates and kickoff windows
- Network apps for live games and replays, based on your provider
Bookmark the team schedule page on your phone. When flex rules shift times in the fall, that page updates first.
If you are out of market, check your streaming plan before preseason hits. Services change packages in the summer. Blackout rules still apply to some replays. Do not wait until August to sort it out.
Avoid outdated schedule graphics floating around message boards. If it does not match the team or league page, do not trust it.
What matters next on Seattle’s calendar
This is the window where smart front offices win. Seattle’s next wave of key dates arrives fast, and every move points to September.
- Free agency opens in mid March, when roster holes get first answers
- The NFL Draft lands in late April, the lifeblood of cap health
- The league releases the full schedule in May, with dates and TV windows
Rookie minicamp follows soon after. Organized team activities build timing for the passing game. By late July, camp battles decide snap counts, and the preseason in August sharpens the depth chart. That is the path back to Sundays that count.
What this means for the roster and the 12s
The big questions sit at the core spots. Geno Smith remains the steady hand at quarterback, cool in the pocket and accurate outside the numbers. The staff will keep pushing for quicker answers on third down. That comes from protection, spacing, and backs who win on check downs. Kenneth Walker brings burst and power. Zach Charbonnet is the hammer who grinds late. When the run game controls tempo, DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett punish single coverage. That balance is the heartbeat of Seattle’s offense.
On defense, the tone is youth and speed. Devon Witherspoon plays like a spark plug, fearless at the catch point and a menace on blitzes. Riq Woolen’s length still erases space on the boundary. The front needs consistent push on early downs. Win there, and the pass rush can hunt in long yardage. That is how this group closes games, with noise from the edges and tipped balls turning into takeaways.
Culture matters here. Lumen Field is more than a venue, it is a weapon. The 12s do not wait for momentum, they create it. That energy will carry into spring practices and into August. There is a simple goal. Get back to football that travels, run the ball, play fast on defense, protect the ball, steal one or two. That recipe holds up in January.
How to follow Seattle until the schedule drops
Until May, the most important updates are transactions, draft visits, and coach interviews. Expect quiet weeks, then bursts of news around the combine and the first free agency wave. When the schedule hits, circle the division games first. The West is built on fine margins. Road trips to difficult environments decide seeding. Prime windows can tilt the prep week, with late cross country flights and short practice cycles.
If you plan a road trip, wait for times to firm up. Flex rules still live in the back half of the season. Hotels are cheaper before the first TV adjustments, but the risk is real. Protect your plans with flexible booking.
The bottom line
There is no Seahawks game today. The Divisional Round belongs to the teams still alive, and Seattle’s work shifts to building the next run. Free agency in March, the Draft in April, and the schedule in May will define the road ahead. The 12s know the drill. Keep your ear to the roster, keep one eye on the bracket, and save your voice. September will be here fast. 🏈
