SAN JOSE, Calif. - The Seahawks held a 44-minute walk-through Saturday at 12:35 p.m. PT, in their final preparation on the day before Super Bowl LX.
"We're in great shape," Seattle head coach Mike Macdonald said. "Guys are in good spirits. You can hear them. Finally. It's taken a while to get here. But it's here. It's awesome."
As Macdonald spoke post-practice, a group of defensive players shouted and cheered before running off the practice field for the last time before the game. Players were loose and energetic and many of them shadow-boxed with each other on the sideline, making cartoon-like sound effects to narrate each move.
"When you ask the team, [shadow-boxing] is what they'll remember from the 2025 Seahawks, which is kind of cool," Macdonald said.
The head coach added that he tries to avoid participating in shadow-boxing sessions. "I act like I don't know the rules," he said jokingly. "So then they don't ask me to do it."
Seattle's day began with a team meeting, where Macdonald said he "gave props to" Seattle's support staff, including the team's kitchen staff.
"Then we had meetings, a walk-through, we will have a team meeting and meetings tonight, and off we go," he said.
Seahawks players and staffers arrived at the practice facility at San Jose State 11:50 a.m. and went to the CEFCU Stadium to take their team photo.
Players took photos in groups by numerical order in their navy uniforms. Seattle coaches and staff wore white polos with the Super Bowl LX logo, posed in groups for their pictures.
Quarterback Sam Darnold, defensive tackle Leonard Williams, and a few other players took a separate photo with the team's strength and conditioning staff.
Players then changed into their walk-through clothes -- T-shirts, shorts and sneakers and headed to the field. It was sunny and 63 degrees.
Players did not wear helmets but a few wore baseball caps and sunglasses to protect from the sun.
Macdonald said he won't bring in any special guest speakers, but he will address the team tonight himself. He knows what his message will be, but said he will keep that for just the team to know.
