Who would have suspected the Super Bowl Champs were going to embrace the scrutiny that is HARD KNOCKS the next time around? Here is the official word in its entirety:
HBO and NFL Films will re-team this summer for the HBO Original HARD KNOCKS: TRAINING CAMP WITH THE SEATTLE SEAHAWKS. The five-episode series debuts TUESDAY, AUGUST 11 at 9:00 p.m. ET/PT on HBO and will be available to stream on HBO Max. New episodes will premiere on subsequent Tuesdays leading up to the finale on September 8. This will be the first time since “Hard Knocks” launched in 2001 with the Baltimore Ravens that the series has documented the defending Super Bowl champion.
HARD KNOCKS: TRAINING CAMP WITH THE SEATTLE SEAHAWKS marks the franchise’s first appearance on the 19-time Sports Emmy®-winning series. Its signature all-access coverage will unfold this summer at the Seahawks training camp in Renton, Washington, and will feature head coach Mike Macdonald, quarterback Sam Darnold, 2025 Associated Press (AP) NFL Offensive Player of the Year Jaxon Smith-Njigba, and defensive standouts Devon Witherspoon and Byron Murphy II.
Looking ahead, the New England Patriots, Super Bowl LX runner-up and six-time champions, will be the show’s featured training camp team in August 2027.
