As the 2024 NFL season heads into October, the Seattle Seahawks are set to host the New York Giants in a Week 5 showdown. The Seahawks (3-1) find themselves in a challenging phase of their schedule, with three games packed into an 11-day span. Their newly refreshed defense, under the guidance of first-year coach Mike Macdonald, faced a tough start to this stretch, suffering a 42-29 defeat against the Lions last Monday. Despite the setback, Seahawks quarterback Geno Smith has been a standout, leading the league in passing yards prior to Week 5, and running back Kenneth Walker III made a triumphant return from injury with three touchdowns against Detroit. The Seahawks remain a surprising contender at the top of the NFC West.
Conversely, the Giants (1-3) will be coming off a 10-day break following their 20-15 loss to the Dallas Cowboys at the beginning of Week 4. The status of key offensive players Malik Nabers (concussion) and Devin Singletary (ankle) will be crucial for quarterback Daniel Jones as he aims to maintain momentum from his recent solid performances, despite two of those ending in defeat.
For fans looking to catch the action on Sunday, the kickoff for the Giants vs. Seahawks matchup is scheduled for 4:25 p.m. ET and will be broadcast live on CBS. The game offers streaming options through NFL+, Paramount+, and YouTube TV (via NFL Sunday Ticket), as well as Fubo, which is currently providing a free trial for new subscribers.
