Seahawks Potential Sale After Super Bowl 2026
The Seattle Seahawks, a football team, might be sold after the Super Bowl in 2026.
The team is currently owned by Jody Allen, who took over after her brother Paul Allen passed away.
Paul Allen bought the team in 1997 for $194 million and kept it in Seattle.
Jody Allen has said the team isn't for sale right now, but it will be sold eventually as part of her brother's plan.
This plan involves taking a long time, maybe 10 to 20 years, to handle everything.
So, the team will stay in Seattle for now, but a sale could happen in the future.
Jody Allen is the current chair of the Seattle Seahawks, taking over after her brother Paul Allen's death.
