Seahawks Re-Sign Long Snapper Chris Stoll to Two-Year, $2.905 Million Deal

The terms lock in long-snapping stability for the champions, pairing a mid-tier average with a relatively high 2026 cash payout.

Overview

  • Chris Stoll’s contract includes $1.2 million guaranteed with a $500,000 signing bonus, a 2026 base of $1.145 million ($700,000 fully guaranteed) and a 2027 base of $1.26 million, per Aaron Wilson.
  • Field Gulls projects cap hits of $1.395 million in 2026 and $1.51 million in 2027 based on the reported figures.
  • The $1.45 million average per year sits around the middle of the long-snapper market, while $1.845 million in 2026 cash places him among the position’s higher earners that year.
  • Stoll joined Seattle as a 2023 undrafted free agent, has appeared in every game the past three seasons, and delivered error-free snaps in Super Bowl LX.
  • The agreement finalizes one of Seattle’s restricted free-agent decisions following last week’s deal to keep linebacker Drake Thomas under team control.
