**Former 49ers QB Lands $100 Million Contract with NFC West Rival**

 

In a shocking offseason move, former San Francisco 49ers quarterback Trey Lance has signed a four-year, $100 million contract with the Seattle Seahawks, making him the new face of the franchise.

Lance, who was traded to the Dallas Cowboys in 2023 and later became a free agent, has now found a home in the NFC West once again. The Seahawks, eager to move on from Geno Smith, made an aggressive push for Lance, believing his dual-threat abilities will thrive in their system.

 

“This is a dream come true,” Lance said at his introductory press conference. “Seattle is building something special, and I can’t wait to be part of it.”

 

The move immediately reignites the Seahawks-49ers rivalry, as Lance will now face his former team twice a year. 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan reacted to the news, stating, “We always believed Trey had talent, and we wish him the best—except when he plays us.”

 

With a revamped offense and a young, hungry quarterback, the Seahawks hope this blockbuster signing propels them back to the top of the division.
