Rebilas-Imagn Images) SANTA CLARA, Calif. -- Jason Myers kicked a trio of field goals and Kenneth Walker rushed for 94 yards as the Seattle Seahawks took a 9-0 lead against the New England Patriots into halftime of Super Bowl LX at Levi's Stadium on Sunday. New England managed only four first downs and 51 yards of total offense in the first half. Patriots quarterback Drake Maye completed 6 of 11 passes for 48 yards and was sacked three times while Seattle's defense racked up five tackles for loss. However, the Patriots stayed within striking distance by twice limiting the Seahawks to field goals in the red zone. Cornerback Christian Gonzalez also nearly intercepted Seahawks quarterback Sam Darnold at the goal line just before the half, but did prevent a touchdown pass to Jaxon Smith-Njigba. New England receives the second-half kickoff. The Seahawks opened the scoring on a 33-yard field goal by Myers on their opening drive. Seattle took the kickoff and moved the ball 51 yards in just over three minutes, with Darnold sharp on completions to tight end A.J. Barner and Cooper Kupp in tight coverage, but the drive stalled on the Patriots' 14-yard line. That proved to be the only scoring of the opening quarter. New England penetrated Seattle territory on both of its first two drives, only to suffer three negative plays -- including a pair of sacks -- that resulted in two punts. The Seahawks managed only one more first down in a pair of drives after the field goal. The teams combined for only 104 total yards in the first quarter. NOTES: Seahawks rookie defensive tackle Rylie Mills, who entered the game with 1 career solo tackle, recorded his first NFL sack when he dropped Maye for a 10-yard loss in the second quarter. Mills suffered a torn ACL toward the end of his 2024 season at Notre Dame, causing him to slide to the fifth round of last year's draft. Mills was activated by the Seahawks in November, but played only a modest role in the line rotation. ... The first penalty of the game wasn't called until 3:09 remaining in the second quarter, when Patriots left tackle Will Campbell was flagged for a false start. --Derek Harper, Field Level Media Super Bowl LX: Seahawks take 9-0 halftime lead Super Bowl LX: Seahawks take 9-0 halftime lead Field Level Media 9th February 2026, 12:25 GMT+11 (Photo credit: Mark J.
