NFL News: Seahawks GM John Schneider signs through 2030

Seattle Seahawks general manager John Schneider agreed to a four-year contract extension through the 2030 draft.

Schneider, 54. enters his second season with head coach Mike Macdonald and would hit the 20-year mark as the primary personnel boss in Seattle if he completes the new contract.

“The extension of general manager John Schneider’s contract is a testament to his 15-plus years of football leadership and success,” team owner Jody Allen said in a statement Wednesday. “I am confident that John will continue to deliver real results and a continued strong partnership with head coach Mike Macdonald that is already contributing to our winning culture on and off the field.”

Hired in 2010 out of the Green Bay Packers organization, where he was a protege of Ron Wolf and Ted Thompson, Schneider is attempting to rebuild the Seahawks into a perennial contender. The team has 10 playoff appearances and played in two Super Bowls — one win, one loss — during Schneider’s tenure. Only one of those four postseason appearances has come in the past four seasons, however.

Among current NFL general managers, only Mickey Loomis (New Orleans Saints GM since 2002) and Mike Brown (Cincinnati Bengals president and GM since 1991) have a longer active tenure. The list doesn’t include Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones, who still calls the shots for the organization he purchased in 1989.

Schneider was hired in January 2010, 10 days before the Eagles promoted 34-year-old Howie Roseman to the same role, and teamed with Pete Carroll to build a dynastic roster centered around value draft picks and other shrewd moves.

The Seahawks drafted quarterback Russell Wilson in the third round (2012), acquired running back Marshawn Lynch via trade (2010), signed defensive end Michael Bennett as a free agent (2013) and scored on a series of defensive prospects in the draft, including cornerback Richard Sherman (154th overall in 2011), safety Kam Chancellor (133rd overall, 2010) and linebacker Bobby Wagner (47th overall, 2012).

When Carroll was fired and replaced by Macdonald in 2023, Schneider added the title of president of football operations.

In his second year with Macdonald, formerly defensive coordinator of the Baltimore Ravens, Schneider overturned much of the roster. Seattle signed Sam Darnold, traded incumbent starting quarterback Geno Smith to the Las Vegas Raiders, dealt wideout DK Metcalf to the Pittsburgh Steelers and rolled the dice with two injury-prone veterans: former Los Angeles Rams All-Pro wide receiver Cooper Kupp and longtime Cowboys pass rusher DeMarcus Lawrence.
