The Seattle Seahawks claimed their second Super Bowl title with a dominant 29-13 victory over the New England Patriots in Super Bowl LX at Levi's Stadium. Kenneth Walker III earned MVP honors, rushing for 135 yards, while Sam Darnold threw for 202 yards and a touchdown in a turnover-free performance. The Seahawks' defense, dubbed the "Dark Side," sacked Drake Maye six times, forced three turnovers—including a strip sack by Derick Hall, interceptions from Uchenna Nwosu and Julian Love, and a 45-yard fumble return touchdown by Nwosu—and held New England scoreless through three quarters. Kicker Jason Myers set a Super Bowl record with five field goals, sealing the win in a punter's duel with 15 combined punts.
As the offseason heats up, NFL teams are reshaping staffs rapidly. The Raiders hired Seahawks OC Klint Kubiak as head coach, the Cardinals tabbed Rams OC Mike LaFleur for theirs with Nathaniel Hackett as OC, and the Steelers brought in Mike McCarthy to replace Mike Tomlin. Other moves include the Ravens hiring Chargers DC Jesse Minter as HC, Bills promoting Joe Brady, Browns adding Todd Monken, Giants welcoming John Harbaugh and NFL exec Dawn Aponte as senior VP of football operations, Falcons naming Matt Ryan president and Kevin Stefanski HC, Dolphins hiring Jeff Hafley as HC, Titans selecting Robert Saleh, and more coordinator shifts like Kliff Kingsbury to the Rams and Frank Reich to the Jets. Firings hit coaches like Jonathan Gannon in Arizona and Kevin Patullo in Philly, with Jeff Stoutland retiring after 13 years.
No major player injuries or roster moves surfaced immediately post-Super Bowl, though fantasy owners note Walker and Darnold's heroics boost their 2026 value, while Maye's struggles could shake Patriot draft strategies. Off-field, the Giants' front office overhaul signals stability under GM Joe Schoen amid Harbaugh's arrival.
With the offseason underway, eyes turn to free agency, the draft—where Raiders may target QB Fernando Mendoza—and early fantasy mocks favoring Seattle's backfield. No notable controversies or other pro league news broke.
