Super Bowl LX
Super Bowl LX, played on the 8th of February 2026 at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, California, was a matchup almost nobody saw coming. Before the season began, Seattle stood at 60-1 to win the championship and New England at 80-1. By those preseason odds, it was the most unlikely Super Bowl pairing in at least 50 years. Neither team had reached the playoffs the year before. The last Super Bowl built that way was Super Bowl XXXVIII.
How did two teams written off in the summer end up on the same field in February? What kind of game did they play once they arrived? And why did a night watched by well over 100 million people leave so many sports outlets grumbling?
Geno Smith, a two-time Pro Bowl quarterback, was traded to the Las Vegas Raiders after a contract dispute with Seattle. The Seahawks signed free agent Sam Darnold the very same day. Darnold was coming off a breakout season with the Minnesota Vikings, after seven years in the league. Seattle had narrowly missed the playoffs two years running, and the changes did not stop at quarterback.
Veteran receiver Tyler Lockett was released, and DK Metcalf was traded to the Pittsburgh Steelers. Cooper Kupp, the 2021 Offensive Player of the Year and the MVP of Super Bowl LVI, arrived in free agency after the Los Angeles Rams let him go. On the day of the trade deadline, Seattle added the Pro Bowl receiver Rashid Shaheed from the New Orleans Saints.
Jaxon Smith-Njigba finished the season with 1,793 receiving yards, the most in the league. He also scored 10 receiving touchdowns, and he earned Offensive Player of the Year, a Pro Bowl berth and first-team All-Pro honors. Darnold made his second Pro Bowl with 4,048 passing yards, 25 touchdowns and a career-high completion rate of 67.7%. He also led the league with 11 fumbles and 20 turnovers. Kenneth Walker III ran for 1,027 yards and five touchdowns. Zach Charbonnet added 730 yards and led the team with 12 rushing touchdowns. As a unit, the offense rose from 14th in yards and 18th in points to eighth in yards and third in points.
The defense, known as the Dark Side, had an even sharper turnaround. It ranked first in scoring defense after finishing 12th the year before, and sixth in yards after ranking 14th. Linebacker Ernest Jones led the team with 126 tackles and five interceptions. Leonard Williams and Byron Murphy II each recorded 7.0 sacks. Cornerback Devon Witherspoon made 72 tackles and, like Williams, earned Pro Bowl and second-team All-Pro honors. Four-time Pro Bowl linebacker DeMarcus Lawrence, signed after a foot injury cost him most of 2024 with the Dallas Cowboys, added 6.0 sacks. Shaheed was the only player in the league to score on both a kick return and a punt return, and punter Michael Dickson averaged 49.9 yards a kick.
With a 14-3 record and the NFC's top seed, Seattle was making its fourth Super Bowl appearance. Its only title so far came in 2013's Super Bowl XLVIII, during the Legion of Boom era. Having earned a bye in the Wild Card Round, the Seahawks beat the San Francisco 49ers 41-6 in the Divisional Round. Darnold played through an injured oblique that day, and Charbonnet suffered an ACL injury during the game. In the NFC Championship Game, Seattle edged the Rams 31-27 after the two teams had split their regular-season meetings, one of them an overtime game. That win sent the Seahawks to their first Super Bowl in 11 years, and they have now reached the big game every time they held the NFC's top seed.
Two straight seasons of 4-13 had left the Patriots at the bottom of the AFC East. In that stretch, they used the third overall pick of the 2024 draft on quarterback Drake Maye, who made the Pro Bowl as a rookie despite the losing. New England then hired Mike Vrabel, the 2021 Coach of the Year with the Tennessee Titans. Vrabel had played for the Patriots during their first three Super Bowl wins.
Josh McDaniels came back as offensive coordinator for the third time, after holding the job from 2006 to 2008 and again from 2012 to 2021. Four-time Pro Bowl receiver Stefon Diggs signed while recovering from an ACL injury suffered the year before with the Houston Texans. The Patriots drafted running back TreVeyon Henderson in the second round in 2025. On defense, they added linebacker Robert Spillane from the Las Vegas Raiders and linebacker Harold Landry, who had been released by the Titans.
The offense went from 31st in yards and 30th in points to third in yards and second in points. Maye threw for 4,394 yards and 31 touchdowns, both highs in the AFC. He led the league with a 72% completion rate and a passer rating of 113.5, and he ran for 450 yards and four touchdowns. He finished second in Most Valuable Player voting. Diggs led the receivers with 1,013 yards, tight end Hunter Henry caught seven touchdowns, and Henderson led the team with 911 rushing yards and nine rushing touchdowns. McDaniels won Assistant Coach of the Year for rebuilding the unit.
The defense jumped from 22nd in both yards and points to eighth in yards and fourth in points. Spillane made 97 tackles and intercepted two passes, and Landry led the team with 8.5 sacks. Safety Jaylinn Hawkins intercepted four passes. Marcus Jones scored two punt return touchdowns, the most in the league, and earned second-team All-Pro honors. Vrabel was named Coach of the Year for a second time.
New England also owned the sport's longest championship résumé. Under quarterback Tom Brady and coach Bill Belichick, the franchise won six Super Bowls, the last in 2018's Super Bowl LIII. This was its 12th appearance, extending its own record, and it was chasing a record seventh title. As the AFC's second seed, the Patriots matched Seattle's 14-3 mark.
In the playoffs, the Patriots beat the Los Angeles Chargers 16-3, their first postseason win since 2018. They then forced five turnovers, four of them interceptions, in a 28-16 win over the Texans. The AFC Championship Game came in the snow against top-seeded Denver, which started backup Jarrett Stidham after Bo Nix hurt his ankle. New England won 10-7. That made them the first team undefeated in nine road games, and the first to beat three top-five defenses in one postseason.
On the 22nd of May 2023, the NFL announced that Levi's Stadium, home of the San Francisco 49ers, would host Super Bowl LX. The league has chosen every host since Super Bowl LVII in 2022, when it dropped the bidding process. Under the new system, a potential host submits a proposal and the team owners vote on it. The game was the third in the San Francisco Bay Area and the second at Levi's Stadium. The first Bay Area game, Super Bowl XIX at Stanford Stadium in 1985, was won by the 49ers over the Miami Dolphins. The stadium's earlier Super Bowl, Super Bowl 50 in 2016, saw the Denver Broncos beat the Carolina Panthers.
The logo followed a tradition begun with Super Bowl LVI, in which the Roman numerals carry imagery from the host region. NBC Sports revealed it in a social media post on the 9th of February 2025, right after Super Bowl LIX ended. A formal unveiling came the next day at a press conference in New Orleans. The numerals use a CMYK color theme and hold the San Francisco skyline, the Golden Gate Bridge and redwood trees.
The Super Bowl Experience took over the Moscone Center in San Francisco. The league also moved the 2026 Pro Bowl Games to the Tuesday before the game, the 3rd of February, at the same venue. That shrank the event and folded it into Super Bowl week. The Patriots practiced at Stanford University in Palo Alto, and the Seahawks at San Jose State University in San Jose.
The uniforms made history of their own. As the designated home team in the yearly conference rotation, New England chose white jerseys and white pants. No home team had worn white since the 2020 Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Super Bowl LV. Seattle wore navy blue from top to bottom, so for the first time both finalists were in single-color uniforms. Both jerseys carried a USA 250 patch marking the United States Semiquincentennial.
That anniversary also shaped the coin toss. Hall of Famers Joe Montana, Peyton Manning and Lynn Swann served as honorary captains. The coin was a modern restrike of the Libertas Americana, a silver medal commissioned by Benjamin Franklin.
The two franchises had met on this stage before, in Super Bowl XLIX, where the Patriots beat the Seahawks 28-24. No player from either roster remained from that game, and McDaniels was the only coach to appear in both. Seattle's general manager John Schneider became the first NFL general manager to reach a second Super Bowl with a completely different roster and head coach. The quarterback duel had its own record. At 23 years and 162 days, Maye was the second-youngest quarterback to start a Super Bowl, behind Dan Marino, who was 23 years and 127 days old in Super Bowl XIX.
The Patriots won the coin toss and deferred, so Seattle got the ball first. The Seahawks marched inside the New England 20-yard line, helped by a 23-yard pass to Kupp. They could not reach the end zone, and Jason Myers kicked a 33-yard field goal. New England's first drive began on its own 28 after D'Ernest Johnson's 28-yard kickoff return. It died near midfield when Derick Hall sacked Maye for a 10-yard loss and the Patriots could not convert a third and 11.
Myers added a 39-yard field goal after runs of 30 and 29 yards by Walker. He kicked a 41-yarder with 11 seconds left in the half. By halftime, New England had no points.
Seattle's fourth field goal, from 41 yards, capped a 10-play, 69-yard drive early in the third quarter and made it 12-0. That drive included a 20-yard pass to Walker and 16-yard passes to Smith-Njigba and Shaheed. Then four straight drives ended in punts. Hall finally strip-sacked Maye, and Murphy recovered the ball at the New England 37-yard line.
As the fourth quarter began, Darnold converted a third and 9 with a pass to Kupp. He then threw the game's first touchdown, a 16-yarder to tight end AJ Barner, for a 19-0 lead. New England answered with a three-play, 65-yard drive that ended in a 35-yard touchdown pass to Mack Hollins. The score stood at 19-7.
Then the turnovers arrived. Dickson's punt was downed at the New England 4-yard line by Velus Jones Jr. Maye completed a 13-yard pass to Rhamondre Stevenson and ran for 16 yards. After a 7-yard completion to rookie receiver Kyle Williams, he threw an interception to safety Julian Love, who returned it 35 yards to the New England 38. Walker ran for 24 yards over the next two plays. When the drive stalled, Myers kicked a record fifth field goal, from 26 yards, to make it 22-7.
On New England's next possession, Witherspoon came on a cornerback blitz and pressured Maye into a throw that linebacker Uchenna Nwosu intercepted. Nwosu returned it 45 yards for a touchdown and a 29-7 lead with 4:27 left. That effectively sealed the game.
Maye hit Stevenson for a touchdown, but the two-point pass to Henry fell incomplete just before the two-minute warning. New England's onside kick was recovered by Seattle's George Holani. A holding penalty on center Jalen Sundell wiped out a 49-yard touchdown run by Walker, so the Seahawks had to punt. The Patriots could not score again, and the game ended 29-13.
The yardage barely separated the teams, with Seattle at 335 and New England at 331. The difference was turnovers. Seattle had none, and the Patriots had three. New England was also sacked six times for 43 yards.
Green Day, the rock band from the East Bay, opened the night with a medley from their 2004 album American Idiot. They played "Holiday", "Boulevard of Broken Dreams" and the title track. Their set carried on a tradition that started with Super Bowl XX, in which past Most Valuable Players are honored before the game every decade. The league also staged ceremonies for the Semiquincentennial.
Pop singer Charlie Puth sang the national anthem, joined by saxophonist Kenny G, the Oakland Interfaith Gospel Choir, the Sainted Trap Choir and the Color of Noize Orchestra under conductor Steve Hackman. Fred Beam performed in American Sign Language and also signed "Lift Every Voice and Sing". Brandi Carlile sang "America the Beautiful", with Julian Ortiz signing. Coco Jones, the daughter of former defensive lineman Mike Jones, sang "Lift Every Voice and Sing".
The anthem ended with a joint flyover by the Air Force and Navy. It featured two B-1B Lancers from Ellsworth Air Force Base in South Dakota and two F-15C Eagles from the California Air National Guard. Two F/A-18E Super Hornets and two F-35C Lightning IIs from Naval Air Station Lemoore in California rounded it out. The Department of Defense said the flyover celebrated 250 years of the armed forces "defending freedom".
At halftime, the Puerto Rican rapper and singer Bad Bunny took the stage, with Lady Gaga and Ricky Martin as guests. The choice served a business goal. NFL senior vice president Marissa Solis told ESPN that the league saw the U.S. Latino population, a community of more than 70 million people, as a "critical growth area". As of 2024, the league counted over 39 million Latino fans in the United States, and executives said growth would be "mathematically impossible without Latinos". The show averaged 128.2 million viewers, the fourth most-watched halftime performance.
Mike Tirico called Super Bowl LX for NBC, the first Super Bowl of his career as a commentator, alongside Cris Collinsworth, who was working his sixth as an analyst. Melissa Stark and Kaylee Hartung worked the sidelines, and Terry McAulay explained the rules. Maria Taylor presided over the Vince Lombardi Trophy presentation. She was the first woman to do so since Lesley Visser at Super Bowl XXVI in 1992.
The game aired on NBC and Telemundo, with Spanish coverage also on Universo and streaming on Peacock, NFL+ and NBC Sports platforms. It was the third Super Bowl under the current 11-year television contract, which rotates the game among CBS, Fox, NBC and ABC/ESPN on a four-year cycle. After the final whistle, NBC rolled straight into Primetime in Milan, its coverage of the 2026 Winter Olympics. It promoted the stretch, with the NBA All-Star Game the following week, as "Legendary February".
An average of 124.9 million people watched across NBCU platforms and NFL+, with a combined household rating of 39.4 from Nielsen, which had debuted a newer measurement system in September 2025. That made it the second most-watched program in U.S. television history, 2.8 million short of the previous year's record. The second quarter set a new peak of 137.8 million viewers. Telemundo drew 3.3 million viewers, a record for a Spanish-language Super Bowl broadcast.
A 30-second spot carried a base price of $10 million, two million more than Fox's initial price the year before. NBC sold packages that bundled the Super Bowl with the Winter Olympics and the NBA All-Star Game. Budweiser's "American Icons" won the USA Today Ad Meter, its second win in a row after "First Delivery" and its tenth overall.
Artificial intelligence was the theme of the night. OpenAI advertised again, joined by newcomer Anthropic, whose ads poked fun at OpenAI putting advertisements into ChatGPT. Svedka Vodka aired the first entirely AI-generated advertisement in Super Bowl history. Pepsi's "The Choice", directed by Taika Waititi, showed a polar bear, a mascot for rival Coca-Cola, picking Pepsi. Many read it as a shot at Coca-Cola's AI-generated Christmas ads from 2024 and 2025.
Sabrina Carpenter appeared for Pringles, Guy Fieri for Bosch and MrBeast for Salesforce. The Backstreet Boys sang in a T-Mobile store, and Coinbase staged a karaoke version of their song "Everybody (Backstreet's Back)". The Cadillac Formula 1 Team revealed its car's livery for the 2026 season.
Ring's "Search Party" spot drew the most controversy. The feature launched as a pilot in September 2025 to find lost pets. The commercial and the national rollout that followed raised privacy and mass surveillance concerns. The backlash led Ring to drop a planned integration with Flock Safety.
Beyond NBC, Westwood One carried the national radio call with Kevin Harlan and Kurt Warner. Abroad, the game aired on channel 5 and Sky Sports in the United Kingdom, on ESPN and Disney+ in Latin America, and on CTV and TSN in Canada. In Indonesia, Emtek Group aired it for the first time after the previous rights-holder Mola shut down its service at the end of 2025.
After the final whistle, several sports outlets ranked the game among the worst Super Bowls, citing offensive struggles on both sides. The Seattle defense drew praise. Kenneth Walker III was named MVP after 135 rushing yards on 27 carries. He was the first running back to win the award since Terrell Davis in 1997's Super Bowl XXXII.
Mike Macdonald, at 38, became the third-youngest head coach to win a Super Bowl, behind Sean McVay and Mike Tomlin. Darnold and the Seahawks became the first champions to commit no turnovers during their postseason run. Darnold had led the league in turnovers in the regular season with 20, and Seattle was second as a team. The Patriots, meanwhile, became the first team to lose six Super Bowls.
The record book filled up. Jason Myers's five field goals set a Super Bowl record, and he also set a mark with 206 points in a single season, regular season and playoffs combined. Shaheed made six fair catches, another record. Darnold became the quarterback who had played for the most teams, five, on the way to a Super Bowl win. Neither team scored a rushing touchdown, and New England's scoreless first half tied a record for the fewest points in a first half.
On the 11th of February, the Seahawks held a parade through Downtown Seattle. It began with a rally at Lumen Field and ended near the Seattle Center. Players and staff rode buses and U.S. National Guard vehicles, and a crowd estimated in the hundreds of thousands watched. More than 200,000 passengers rode the Link light rail that day, on increased service.
The celebration came with a business twist. The estate of Paul Allen, led by his sister Jody Allen, put the Seahawks up for sale, as his will directed. It was the first time a Super Bowl champion was put on the market in the same year as its title. The next season will open with a rematch, the Seahawks hosting the Patriots at Lumen Field in the Kickoff Game. It will be the first time both reigning Super Bowl participants have met in that game since 2016.
