Seahawks all-time record vs NFC East: updated for 2025
For the past two years, we at Seahawks Wire have been tracking the Seattle Seahawks' all-time records against every team in the NFL. It is important, we feel, to keep an updated log of Seattle's history and how they stack up with other squads in the league. We are resuming this ongoing series with updated records headed into the 2025 season. So far in this series, we have done we have covered the NFC West, NFC North, NFC South and AFC South. We focused on the two southern divisions early due to the fact Seattle is paired against those divisions for the 2025 season. For our latest entry, we will officially be closing out the NFC with the East. The Seahawks were last slated to play the NFC East in 2023, but did have an infamous showdown with one of these teams last year. Dallas Cowboys All-time record: Dallas leads the series 12-10 Longest win streak: both teams have won three straight against each other, but Dallas has done it twice (October 1976-December 1983, November 2008-November 2011) and Seattle has only done it once between November 2015 and September 2018. Most recent outcome: November 30th, 2023 - the Cowboys outlast the Seahawks 41-35 in a Thursday Night Football shootout. Seattle squandered a 35-27 lead in the fourth quarter and turned the ball over on downs on their three final possessions of the game. New York Giants All-time record: the series is tied at 11-11 Longest win streak: the Seahawks won four-straight games October 2011 to October 2017 Most recent outcome: October 6th, 2024 - the Giants gave my father the worst birthday gift imaginable by handing the Seahawks one of the worst losses in recent memory, stealing a game 29-20 at Lumen Field. This would be the last game New York would win in 2024 for an astonishing 10 weeks. Philadelphia Eagles All-time record: Seattle leads the series 13-7 Longest win streak: the Seahawks are currently on an eight-game winning streak over the Eagles dating back to December 2011. Most recent outcome: December 18th, 2023 - the Seahawks saved their season with backup Drew Lock under center on Monday Night Football. Seattle had lost their last four games, and at 6-7 were on the verge of being eliminated entirely from postseason contention. Instead, Drew Lock found then-rookie Jaxon Smith-Njigba for a game-winning touchdown strike and safety Julian Love intercepted Jalen Hurts to seal the 20-17 upset victory. Washington Commanders All-time record: Washington lead the series 13-10 Longest win streak: the Commanders have defeated the Seahawks four times in a row twice, from September 1983 to November 1992, and from November 2001 to October 2005. Most recent outcome: November 12th, 2023 - for the first time in the rivalry, the Seahawks defeated the "other" Washington at Lumen Field during the regular season. Jason Myers nailed the game winning kick from 43-yards out to win 29-26 over the Commanders.

Browns QB Joe Flacco insists he's not a mentor at OTAs
The Cleveland Browns have a crowded quarterback room. While the group tries to tiptoe around the fact, they end up stepping on each other's toes. The veteran in the room, Joe Flacco, was the latest to stumble through an interview. Flacco spoke to the media after the second day of OTAs. Flacco was asked to elaborate on his least favorite question: his role as a mentor for rookie quarterbacks. He gave a long and thoughtful answer. Flacco draws issue with how the question is phrased. He believes it can be divisive and used for clickbait. At every stop, Flacco has been adamant that it's not his role, or the role of the backup quarterback, to mentor a rookie. He believes they help rookies prepare for the NFL, they're not holding their hand and walking them through every concept. Flacco has been haunted by the question since the Baltimore Ravens drafted Lamar Jackson in 2018. Flacco faced the question in Denver with Drew Lock, in New York with Zach Wilson, in Philadelphia with Jalen Hurts, and in Indianapolis with Anthony Richardson. He's worked with a lot of young quarterbacks in the recent past, and they've all publicly appreciated the guidance he's provided. Advertisement Flacco has his priorities in the correct order. He's going to be battling for the Browns' starting job. He's the team's best hope for a capable offense. Flacco needs to focus on the team, not the rookies.

Way-too-early Seahawks 53-man roster projection: offense
Way-too-early Seahawks 53-man roster projection: offense The Seattle Seahawks will begin their first of nine Organized Team Activities (OTA) practices on Tuesday. Though this portion of the offseason remains voluntary, roster battles will begin taking shape. With the Seahawks officially on the practice field, we've delivered our way-too-early 53-man roster projection for the offense. Quarterbacks (3): Sam Darnold, Drew Lock, Jalen Milroe The Seahawks are one of few teams that should carry three quarterbacks. They signed Drew Lock to be the veteran backup to Sam Darnold. Rookie third-round pick Jalen Milroe will be afforded an opportunity to slowly develop behind the scenes. Running backs (4): Kenneth Walker III, Zach Charbonnet, Robbie Ouzts, Damien Martinez The need for a fullback in Klint Kubiak's offense will probably prevent the Seahawks from keeping more than three natural running backs. Damien Martinez, Kenny McIntosh, and George Holani will compete for one spot. Rookie fifth-rounder Robbie Ouzts is the favorite to be the fullback. Wide receivers (6): Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Cooper Kupp, Marquez Valdes-Scantling, Tory Horton, Jake Bobo, Ricky White III The Seahawks could go even lighter here with five wide receivers. If so, Jake Bobo and rookie draft-pick Ricky White III would compete with a slew of back-end players for the final gig. Jaxon Smith-Njigba and Cooper Kupp are expected to do heavy lifting at wide receiver. Tight ends (3): Noah Fant, Elijah Arroyo, AJ Barner Noah Fant, Elijah Arroyo, and AJ Barner project as a solid trio at tight end. Brady Russell is converting to fullback and will battle Ouzts for the backfield blocking role. Fant, Arroyo, and Barner should make-up a high quality TE room in Seattle. Offensive line (9): Charles Cross, Grey Zabel, Olu Oluwatimi, Christian Haynes, Abraham Lucas, Josh Jones, Jalen Sundell, Bryce Cabeldue, Mason Richman There's plenty of competition for offensive line spots. This projection leaves guards Anthony Bradford and Sataoa Laumea off the roster. That means both rookies, Mason Richman and Bryce Cabeldue, make it. Veteran free-agent addition Josh Jones is the swing tackle in this scenario.

Giants rookie QB refuses to pay teammate for jersey number: 'It's too much'
It's common in the NFL for players who are commonly associated with one particular playing number to be forced to either make a deal or pay off any player currently on the roster that wears the same digit. For New York Giants rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart, the No. 2 he wore while in college is currently occupied by one of his new teammates - Deonte Banks. Banks, a second-year cornerback, is wearing that number after previously making another switch. When the Giants signed quarterback Russell Wilson, the incoming Super Bowl-champion made a deal with Banks to get his No. 3. After that, Banks made the move to No. 2 - which Dart later wanted off of him. But, speaking to Cllct Media, Dart says his pursuit of his college number is off after he heard the 'price tag' that Banks placed on it. 'Yeah, it's too much,' Dart said while laughing. 'Too much.' Adding to Dart's unfortunate luck, the only reason No. 2 is available is because quarterback Drew Lock is not with the Giants anymore - leading Banks to pick the vacant number. As a result, Dart has been seen in practices wearing the number 6 instead. Not even Dart knows if that will be the final number he puts on his jersey. 'I think we'll come to a final decision here soon,' Dart said. 'Quite honestly, I kind of have to just look at the pictures to see if I like myself in No. 6.' While Dart has not officially signed his rookie deal, he is expected to ink a four-year, $16.9million deal - with a $9m signing bonus.
