Seahawks, Patriots will serve as next two Hard Knocks teams
Key Points:
- The NFL has announced the teams for the next two seasons of the HBO docuseries Hard Knocks, selecting the Seattle Seahawks for 2026 and the New England Patriots for 2027.
- This marks the first time either team will be featured on the long-running show.
- Both the Seahawks and Patriots made it to Super Bowl LX, highlighting their prominence in upcoming seasons.
- The NFL has removed the previous rule exempting teams that made the playoffs in the past two seasons from Hard Knocks consideration.
- Recent Hard Knocks seasons have focused on entire divisions, but the 2026 and 2027 editions are expected to spotlight individual teams rather than divisions.
