2026 NFL Signings Graded by Team: Seattle Seahawks

This page lists all the 2026 NFL Signings for the Seattle Seahawks. I’ve listed all of the NFL Free Agent Signing Grades here, which included the Signings. Because I’ve begun posting polls for the Signings, I thought it would make sense to list just the NFL Signings here, so archiving the voting would be easier.

March 2026 – Signings


Seahawks sign RB Emanuel Wilson (1 year): A- Grade
signed on 3/12/2026


The Seahawks had Kenneth Walker and Zach Charbonnet form a solid committee last year, but Walker is gone and Charbonnet is coming off a torn ACL. George Holani was the lone, viable running back remaining, so the Seahawks had to obtain some help at the position.

Emanuel Wilson is a decent signing, considering the Seahawks brought him in for just one year. Wilson has been decent in relief of Josh Jacobs over the past two years, so he could be a fine option if the Seahawks don’t like any of the running back options available to them in the 2026 NFL Draft.

Seahawks re-sign WR/KR Rashid Shaheed (3 years, $51 million): B+ Grade
signed on 3/9/2026


So much for Rashid Shaheed going to Las Vegas to reunite with Klint Kubiak. Everyone believed that Shaheed would sign with the Raiders, but he opted to stay with the Seahawks instead.

It’s hard to hate this re-signing. Shaheed was a huge weapon on special teams late in the year for Seattle. The Seahawks couldn’t figure out how to use Shaheed on offense, but perhaps they’ll be able to do so with an entire offseason.

Seahawks re-sign CB Josh Jobe (3 years, $24 million): C+ Grade
signed on 3/9/2026


The Seahawks had two of prominent cornerbacks entering free agency, with Tariq Woolen and Josh Jobe set to have their contracts expire. Woolen is all but certain to leave, but Seattle was able to retain Jobe.

However, I don’t view this as a great move because it seems as though the Seahawks overpaid. Jobe isn’t a bad cornerback by any means, but he’s as pedestrian as it gets, so I can’t really support a contract worth $8 million per season. I think something worth $5 million per year or so would have been more appropriate.
