Macdonald's defense will attempt to put pressure on Vikings quarterback J.J. McCarthy, who's expected to enter his first season as a starter in 2025. The Seahawks already ranked No. 10 in the NFL with 45 sacks last season and signed four-time Pro Bowl defensive end DeMarcus Lawrence in free agency.

The Seahawks' 2025 schedule features four prime-time games, including two on Thursday night, one on Sunday night and a Monday night matchup.
