Rashid Shaheed wants to 'run it back' with the Seahawks

"Absolutely," Shaheed said to NFL Network's Bridget Condon on Wednesday. "Conversations are definitely going to be heating up towards March. But you know, I would love to come back. I loved my experience here, I'm loving the Pacific Northwest, and obviously the organization is second to none. I kind of want to run it back. We just won the Super Bowl, so, you know, why not?"

Rashid Shaheed wants to win, and re-signing with the Seahawks gives him the best chance

Having experienced a title run with a team destined to be good for a while, Shaheed is eager to play for a winner. 

"The goal for me is just to continue to win," he said. "Now that I've got a taste of a Super Bowl championship, I'm gonna continue to work towards that each and every year, man. I'm a competitor, I love the game of football, I'm willing to do whatever for my teammates and my team. Yeah, I just love the game and I'm willing to do what it takes."

Shaheed was pedestrian as a receiver in Seattle's Super Bowl run, catching three passes for 78 yards, with his best game coming against the Los Angeles Rams (51 yards) in the NFC Championship Game. 

However, he is a special-teams demon, excelling on kick and punt returns. In 2025, he had three returns for TDs, including a 95-yard kickoff return in the divisional round against the San Francisco 49ers. 

Seahawks may have to choose between Rashid Shaheed or Kenneth Walker III in free agency 

Having two of their best offensive weapons as free agents, the Seahawks may have to choose between either signing Walker III or Shaheed. 

Walker III may prove to be the more expensive of the two, as he had his second 1,000-yard rushing season in 2025 (1,027 yards and five rushing touchdowns) and was named Super Bowl MVP (135 yards rushing). Walker III was the first running back since Hall of Famer Terrell Davis of the Denver Broncos in 1998 to win that award. 

Seattle also has several pending free agents on defense, including defensive tackle Josh Jones and edge-rusher Boye Mafe. Because the defense was instrumental in Seattle's Super Bowl run, the Seahawks will face tough roster-building decisions.
