Seahawks Inactives: George Holani Good to Go vs. 49ers, Robert Henry Jr. Held Out

Sounders Decimate Revolution on the Road, Reintroduce Themselves as Playoff Contenders
The Seattle Sounders entered a Saturday road bout with the red-hot New England Revolution on an eight-game unbeaten run, and proved it wasn't a fluke with a 3-0 W. Seattle got goals from Hassani Dotson, Dejan Joveljic, and Paul Arriola while managing a clean sheet as it remains in the playoff race.

'Getting Better Every Game': Christian Haynes Finding Groove in Seahawks' Right Guard Platoon

Seahawks Sign Trevon Diggs to Active Roster, Lose Another Rookie to Injured Reserve

Huskies Humiliated at Home by No. 20 Iowa
If you want to beat a good Big Ten team, you have to play like a good Big Ten team. And the Washington Huskies fell short in virtually every way in a 41-24 loss to No. 20 Iowa Friday night at Husky Stadium. Aside from a strong performance from backup quarterback Elijah Brown, not much went right.
50 in 50: 2027 Mariners Need Viable Backup Options
The Mariners front office has all too often gone into competitive seasons needing everything too many chance things to go right in order for the whole plan to succeed. If any one aspect meaningfully goes wrong - there are injuries, there are underperformers, and so on - the whole plan falls apart.
Seahawks Closer to Full Strength with 'Big Cat,' Ty Okada Ready to Suit Up vs. 49ers

Big Ten Picks: It’s Desperation Time For Huskies
‘One of One': Fully Healthy Nick Emmanwori Continues to Wow as Seahawks Brace for 49ers’ Prolific Offense
Just in his second NFL season, Nick Emmanwori has much left to learn as he grows into one of the cornerstones of Mike Macdonald’s defense built around multiplicity, still far from a finished product for the Seattle Seahawks.
Kraken Have Opportunity to Make Statement on First Big Road Trip
The Seattle Kraken have barely had time to get their sea legs, and already they're being asked to navigate some choppy waters. After opening the 2026-27 season with a mix of encouraging wins and stumbles against Vegas and Edmonton, there is a lot we still don’t know about this Kraken squad. Seattle is heading out on a five-game road trip that will test its depth, resilience, and ability to compete when the comforts of Climate Pledge Arena are nowhere to be found. It’s hard for fans to g...
Big Ten Picks: It’s Desperation Time For The Huskies
It’s desperation time. The Washington Huskies fell to 0-2 in the conference Saturday in LA, and they need a win Friday night against No. 20 Iowa to stop the downward spiral. UW freshman running back Brian Bonner Jr. ran with confidence in the 25-21 loss at USC, and Jeff Fisch’s playcalling had its moments. The Hawkeyes are a different deal, however. Iowa has given up an average of 12.6 points per game, and will present a massive challenge up front for a Washington offensive line that h...
‘One of One': Fully Healthy Nick Emmanwori Continues to Wow as Seahawks Brace for 49ers’ Prolific Offense
RENTON, Wash. - Just in his second NFL season, Nick Emmanwori has much left to learn as he grows into one of the cornerstones of Mike Macdonald’s defense built around multiplicity, still far from a finished product for the Seattle Seahawks. But at just 22 years of age, even as he remains a ways away from reaching his ceiling and can still be prone to an occasional unwanted penalty from time to time, Emmanwori reminded everyone why he may be the most exciting must-see attraction on a tal...
Potential Oozes for Gonzaga During Kraziness in the Kennel
Optimism reached peak levels for the Gonzaga Bulldogs during Kraziness in the Kennel, where a returning sophomore seems to be taking the leap to stardom, the team might legitimately be dangerous from beyond the arc, and if all goes well with the eligibility situations, this deep roster could wreak havoc this season. Emerald City Spectrum reporter Howard Woodard details the encouraging signs from the Zags' preseason event, and how significant these flashes are to Gonzaga's ceiling as a n...
Seattle Soccer Update: Are the Reign a Playoff Team? Plus, Sounders Prep for a Telling Road Trip with Postseason Hopes Alive
The Seattle Reign and Seattle Sounders share a combined +1 goal differential as each team has played 27 league games in 2026. As such, the 12-11-4 Reign sit two points out of an NWSL playoff spot with three games remaining, while the 10-9-8 Sounders occupy the seventh spot in the MLS Western Conference with seven games remaining. The Reign return from an international break for a bout with the Chicago Stars on Oct. 18, while the Sounders start a tough road trip at New England on Saturday...
Three Unsung Heroes Emerge in Seahawks’ Solid 3-1 Start
The Seahawks are off to a 3-1 start in their defense of their Super Bowl title. With it being a 17-game regular season, there is no round number for the quarter mark for games but most teams take stock after four contests. The Seahawks have, at times, looked every bit the Super Bowl contender they are. At times, they also have look more disjointed and undisciplined than we are accustomed to seeing. Sure, stars like Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Leonard Williams, Ernest Jones, and Julian Love are ...
Analysis: Kraken Could Make Two Big Simon Edvinsson Offers
The Seattle Kraken have tried desperately to make impact additions to their roster. Unfortunately, general manager Jason Botterill’s attempted trades for Artemi Panarin and Jason Robertson did not come to fruition. But, there’s a new big fish available on the market. Sportsnet’s Elliotte Freidman reported that restricted free agent Simon Edvinsson “prefers” a trade from the Detroit Red Wings. That’s a little softer than the explicit trade request that their former captain Dylan Larkin ma...
Robert Henry Jr. Blessed for ‘Great Opportunity’ Joining Seahawks’ Backfield
RENTON, Wash. - Switching teams during the middle of an NFL season always creates chaos, with quickly finding a place to live in a new city to rapidly learning a new playbook in a matter of days being only two of the many challenges facing players under such circumstances. But those challenges become further magnified for rookies, who already find themselves swimming trying to acclimate to the league. That’s especially the case for an undrafted player such as running back Robert Henry Jr...
50 in 50: What Do M’s Manager Failures Say About Future Skipper Needs?
Though he made clear that the process would extend “as long as it takes”, Mariners president of baseball operations Jerry Dipoto set out a checklist of sorts when he described his ideal manager hire for 2027 during his end-of-season interview in late September. “Generally speaking, we're just looking for someone who has high character, growth mindset, has the ability to think strategically in the context of a major league game,” Dipoto said. While the front office head said it would be ...
