Analysis
Written By Corbin Smith

With the calendar recently flipping to July and offseason workouts wrapped up league-wide for the summer, the defending Super Bowl champion Seattle Seahawks will soon descend upon the Virginia Mason Athletic Center for the start of training camp, kicking off a much-anticipated 2026 season.

To celebrate the new incoming season, I will be ranking every member of the Seahawks 90-man roster over the next several weeks leading up to report day, providing detailed profiles, exploring best and worst case scenarios, and breaking down what to expect from each player entering the 2026 campaign.

Continuing with No. 55-51 on my annual rankings, a dynamic rookie receiver hopes to cut his teeth on special teams as he did at the college level, while three veterans entering the final year of their contract will face pressure to stick on the 53.
