NFL fans won’t have to wait long for an up-close look at the defending Super Bowl champions.
The NFL and HBO revealed Tuesday that the Seattle Seahawks will be featured on the training camp version of “Hard Knocks” this year from the practice fields of Renton, Washington.

The Super Bowl 60 runner-up, the New England Patriots, will have their airtime during training camp in 2027.
The Seahawks’ five-episode series debuts Tuesday, Aug. 11, at 9 p.m. ET on HBO and HBO Max. It’s the first time since “Hard Knocks” launched in 2001 that the series has documented the defending Super Bowl champions. As always, Liev Schreiber returns to narrate.
The Buffalo Bills had the distinction of welcoming the “Hard Knocks” crew to training camp in 2025. Longstanding rules, such as not selecting a team with a first-year head coach, can sometimes make the selection process tricky.

In-season “Hard Knocks” shows began in 2021 and eventually covered entire divisions in 2024 (AFC North) and 2025 (NFC East), and the New York Giants were featured during an offseason version of the show. But the original, training-camp docuseries, remains the core of the “Hard Knocks” brand.
