Seahawks 2024 NFL schedule release tracker: Confirmations, leaks, and rumors

Happy Seattle Seahawks schedule release week, everyone!

We’re less than four months away from the start of the Mike Macdonald era. The Seahawks’ regular season slate includes home games against the Buffalo Bills, Green Bay Packers, and the Denver Broncos. Notable road trips include No. 1 overall pick Caleb Williams and the Chicago Bears, Aaron Rodgers and the New York Jets, and (as usual) the Detroit Lions, who came so close to reaching last year’s Super Bowl. In a 17-game regular season, the NFC and AFC alternate which conference gets the extra home game, and this year it’s the NFC’s turn.

The full 2024 NFL regular season schedule is set to be released on Wednesday, May 15 at 8 PM ET/5 PM PT. ESPN2 and NFL Network will have multi-hour specials breaking down the schedules. There’s no reason to actually watch these things when you can just get the schedule right here and not have to deal with deep analysis of December games in freakin’ mid-May.

This post contains everything from rumored dates and times across the league, any pertinent Seahawks news, and more. We know that this is getting a Tuesday publish, but network leaks and confirmations have already begun, so the sooner the better. When the whole Seahawks schedule is out, that will come in a separate article. We’ll also have an article up for the preseason schedule, which will only have three games (one home, two away) but will still be of interest to anyone who wants to check out the team in August.

Strength of schedule

Seattle’s strength of schedule, based on their 2023 opponents’ combined records from the 2022 season, is tied for 24th (aka 8th easiest). That means almost nothing because inevitably there will be variance that leads to the schedule being either easier or harder than expected. If you measured SOS based on projected win totals, then the Seahawks’ schedule ranks 15th.

Seahawks’ projected win total

You may have a high opinion of the Seahawks (or not!), but Vegas disagrees. The DraftKings Sportsbook projected win total sits at 7.5 and didn’t budge after the NFL Draft.
