Heading into 2025, the Seattle Seahawks should be looking to turn the page on the past. Specifically, that means cutting ties with a few long-time players like Tyler Lockett and possibly DK Metcalf. It also means planning for the future at quarterback, if not out-right moving on from Geno Smith before the new league year begins.

The NFL playoffs are set to begin in just a few hours as Jim Harbaugh, Justin Herbert and the Los Angeles Chargers visit DeMeco Ryans, C.J. Stroud and the Hosuton Texans, who are contractually obligated to be the first postseason team broadcast each year.

Turnovers withstanding, Geno Smith did a fine job navigating challenging circumstances to remain highly productive for the Seahawks in 2024.
