Seattle Seahawks news: Devon Witherspoon extension, preseason loss

We check in with the Seahawks to see what is going on with the Cardinals' NFC West rivals.

The NFL preseason has begun and the Seattle Seahawks and Arizona Cardinals are among the division rivals currently in action. Key news concerning the Seahawks includes a four-year, $132 million extension signed with cornerback Devon Witherspoon, making him the NFL's highest-paid cornerback. In their preseason opener, the Seahawks suffered a 17-7 loss to the Dallas Cowboys, with no starters participating in the game.

Veteran pass rusher DeMarcus Lawrence announced that he will conclude his 13th NFL season and second with the Seahawks in 2026, planning to retire afterward. Wide receiver Sam Darnold, instrumental in the Seahawks' Super Bowl victory last season, was named the 21st-best player in the NFL by player voting for the Top 100. The Seahawks are also considering signing former first-round draft pick Terrion Arnold, who recently left the Detroit Lions following eight felony charges.

Cards Wire provides further coverage on these developments with guest Jess Root, available on Spotify, YouTube, or Apple Podcasts.
