The Seattle Seahawks are playing their first game of the year tonight, hosting the Minnesota Vikings at Lumen Field in their 2023 preseason debut. This time of year coaches and their staffs are focused on trimming the fat from their rosters as they prepare to cut down from 90 players to 53 at the end of the August.
