William "Budget" Seaman (c. 1875 – April 18, 1910) was an American football and baseball player and coach.

For three seasons, Seaman coached for his alma mater, Washington & Jefferson. His next team, Western Reserve, earned two titles in the Ohio Athletic Conference during his four-year tenure.

As a baseball manager of the Washington Senators in the Pennsylvania–Ohio–Maryland League for its only two seasons, he posted records of 57–44 in 1906—enough for league runner-up—and 45–75 in 1907.

Seaman was to remain the Western Reserve football coach for the 1910 season. However, he caught pneumonia in April 1910 and died in his hometown of Washington, Pennsylvania.
