Seattle announced that the team has been sold to an ownership group led by the Khosla family. This includes Vinod Khosla, a limited partner in the San Francisco 49ers.
The Khosla family released a statement through Vinod.
“We are honored to be entrusted as the next stewards of the Seattle Seahawks. We look forward to building on the winning legacy Paul Allen created and to earning the trust of the Seahawks organization and fans everywhere.”
The team was reportedly sold for a record $9.612 billion, per ESPN’s Adam Schefter and Seth Wickersham. The sale is subject to NFL approval in the coming months.
This will be the first ownership change for the Seahawks since 1997, when the franchise was purchased by Paul Allen. After his death in 2018, the ownership of the team transferred to Allen’s estate and was managed by his sister Jody Allen.
It was first announced on February 18 of this year that the Paul Allen estate would look into selling the franchise, less than a month after the team beat the New England Patriots in the Super Bowl.
