The Seahawks will open their 2022 season by inviting Russell Wilson back to Seattle on a Monday night, Sept. 12.

They will close it by inviting Bobby Wagner and the shielding Super Bowl champion Rams to Seattle on one or the other Jan. 7 or Jan. 8 — the official date and time not entirely set in stone.

Those games were the features of the arrival of the 2022 normal season plan, formally revealed Thursday evening. The NFL had before declared that the Seahawks will play the primary ordinary season game in association history in Germany on Nov. 13 against Tampa Bay in Munich.

Yet, perhaps demonstrative of the low assumptions for the Seahawks following the exchange of Wilson and falling off a 7-10 season, they have only two ideal time games — the opener against Denver and a Thursday-night game on Dec. 15 at home against the 49ers. The last time the Seahawks had two or less ideal time games was 2011, the prior year Wilson showed up. They had the greatest five planned in 2021 (yet one was flexed out of ideal time).

The matchup of Denver and Seattle was set some time in the past in the NFL’s booking recipe, just like the other rivals. The Broncos game took on added reverberation when Wilson was exchanged to Denver on March 8.

The NFL — never one to botch an opportunity at expanding publicity — will attempt to get as much openness out Wilson’s re-visitation of Seattle by placing it in the marquee Monday evening time space to open the season.

The Monday night opener against Denver will likewise be the introduction for the transmission group of Joe Buck and Troy Aikman on ESPN/ABC, with the organization tricking them from FOX Sports in the offseason.

It is likewise just the subsequent time in group history it has opened with an ideal time game. The other was in 2014 when Seattle facilitated Green Bay on Thursday as the season the opening shot game.

Denver was introduced as a 3.5-point number one by sportsbetting.ag, and tickets just to get in the entryway were at that point rolling for $271 on Vivid Seats in somewhere around an hour of the declaration of the game.

Here is the Seahawks whole 2022 timetable (all times Pacific), which includes an establishment record nine home games as the NFL went to a 17-game timetable last season, where gatherings compromise having an additional a home game every year — AFC in odd years and NFC in even years.
