The 2025 season will be the Seattle Seahawks' 50th in the National Football League (NFL), their 16th under the leadership of general manager John Schneider and their second under head coach Mike Macdonald. They will attempt to improve on their 10–7 record from last season, make the playoffs after a two-year absence, and win the NFC West title for the first time since 2020.

Offseason

The offseason saw the departures of wide receiver Tyler Lockett, quarterback Geno Smith, and wide receiver DK Metcalf; Lockett was released on March 5, while Smith and Metcalf were traded on March 13 to the Las Vegas Raiders and Pittsburgh Steelers, respectively. It will be the first season since 2014 without Lockett, and the first since 2018 without Smith and Metcalf on the roster.
