Seattle signed Hall to a three-year, $42 million contract extension Tuesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Hall only came away with 2.0 sacks in the third season of his rookie contract as he rotated in on the edge behind veteran DeMarcus Lawrence, Uchenna Nwosu and Boye Mafe. However, following a 2.0-sack performance in Super Bowl 60, Hall is now getting a second contract with the Seahawks. With Lawrence having just turned 34 and Mafe now playing with Cincinnati, Hall more easily projects for a starter-type role in 2026.
Seahawks' Derick Hall: Fantastic showing in Super Bowl
Rotowire
Hall recorded 2.0 sacks and a forced fumble in Sunday's 29-13 win over the Patriots in the Super Bowl.
The Seahawks' plethora of pass rushers was a difference maker in this game, and Hall was legitimately in the MVP conversation with his performance. Hall recorded just 2.0 sacks through 14 regular-season games, but he matched that total on the biggest stage. The 2023 second-round pick dropped Patriots QB Drake Maye for a 10-yard loss on the first drive of the game. He added a strip-sack in the waning seconds of the third quarter with the ball being recovered by second-year DT Byron Murphy. Hall will be in the final year of his rookie contract in 2026, making him an extension candidate this offseason.
Hall recorded 1.0 sacks on his only tackle in Saturday's 13-3 win over the 49ers.
Hall returned from his suspension to play 50 percent of the defensive snaps in the crucial divisional game. The 2023 second-round pick piled up 8.0 sacks in 2024, but he posted just 2.0 sacks this season due to the stellar play of DE Leonard Williams and LB Uchenna Nwosu, who both stacked up 7.0 sacks. Hall should continue to handle a middling role during the postseason.

Seahawks' Derick Hall: Suspension lifted
Rotowire
The NFL lifted Hall's one-game suspension Monday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Hall was handed a one-game suspension for unnecessary roughness and unsportsmanlike conduct during the Seahawks' overtime win over the Rams in Week 16, when he stepped on Kevin Dotson's leg. That prevented him from playing in Seattle's Week 17 win over Carolina, but now that the suspension has been lifted, Hall will be available for Saturday's regular-season finale against San Francisco, a game that will determine who enters the playoffs as the NFC's No. 1 seed.
