NFL Free Agency is underway for the 2026 league year, kicking off with a legal tampering period today at 9am Pacific time. Teens can now negotiate contracts with unrestricted free agents, but no deals can be signed until Wednesday, March 11th, at 1pm Pacific. The Seattle Seahawks enter this window with $58 million in salary cap space, setting them up nicely after a Super Bowl win. The Seahawks face tough choices on several key players, including Super Bowl MVP running back Ken Walker, wide receiver Rashid Shaheed from the mid-season trade and defensive backs like Cherique Woolen, Josh Job and Kobe Bryant. General manager John Schneider has plenty of room to maneuver without major cuts or trades this time around. Teens are buzzing about who stays and who goes, especially with the team's recent success putting pressure on retaining talent.

They've also tendered running back George Holani at 1.075 million and safety tie Alcada at 1.145 million. Keep an eye on the unrestricted and restricted free agents like Boy Mafe, Brady Russell and others as negotiations heat up, who have updates as moves happen across the league.
