It's March 30th. This is NFL News Today, your AI-powered source for everything NFL. Seattle Seahawks just wrapped up their Super Bowl win, but the offseason hit hard with key losses. They kept Y receiver Rashid Shaheed and quarterback Josh Job, but said goodbye to safety. Kobe Bryant and star running back Kenneth Walker, the third. Walker earned Super Bowl MVP honors in that 29-13B down of the New England Patriots. He ran for 135 yards on 27 carries and caught two passes for 26 more. Then he inked a three-year deal worth $43.3 million with the Kansas City Chiefs, the biggest free agent contract ever for A. Running Back. Coach Mike McDonald is staying positive about the running back room. He knows replacing Walker's explosiveness is tough, but he's got options like Zach Sharbanay, who had a solid year with 730 yards and 12 touchdowns before an ACL tear in the playoffs.

They added a manual Wilson from the Green Bay Packers in free agency. He showed flashes with over 100 yards in a couple games last season. Plus, George Hollani stepped up big in the NFC Championship in Super Bowl after getting healthy, and Kenny McIntosh is rehabbing too. McDonald's pumped about this group pushing forward, and with the 2026 draft coming up, they might grab another back like Arkansas. Speedster Mike Washington, Jr. Seattle's Building Smart, ready to defend that title without missing a beat.
