Speculation is growing around the future of the Seattle Seahawks and whether tech billionaire Jeff Bezos could become its next owner. With reports suggesting the franchise may eventually be sold, an NFL insider recently floated Bezos as a possible suitor. This reignited long-running rumors about the billionaire’s interest in NFL ownership.

Speculation Around a Historic NFL Franchise Sale

The Seahawks, one of the NFL’s most iconic franchises, have been owned by the Paul Allen estate since co-founder Paul Allen’s death in 2018. League insiders have long anticipated a future sale of the team. That possibility has gained traction ahead of Super Bowl LX, especially given recent reporting that the franchise could be put up for sale soon.

Amid this backdrop, a recent comment by NFL insider Jonathan Jones connected the potential sale to Jeff Bezos, whose immense wealth and ties to Seattle make him a name that frequently comes up in sports ownership discussions.

What the Insider Actually Said

NFL insider Jonathan Jones specifically tweeted that:

“The eventual sale of the Seahawks and Jeff Bezos have been a potential connection for some time.”

This doesn’t confirm that Bezos has made a bid, but it highlights that his name has surfaced as a possible suitor amid ongoing conversations about the team’s future.

Is the Team Actually for Sale?

Before answering whether Bezos will buy the team, it’s important to clarify the current status of the Seahawks’ ownership:

  • Recent reports say the Seahawks are expected to go up for sale after Super Bowl LX.
  • However, the Paul Allen estate has publicly denied that a sale is imminent right now. They noted that while the estate plans to sell someday, no active sale process is currently underway.

Conclusion

At the moment, Jeff Bezos’ buying the Seattle Seahawks remains a rumor, not a reality. An NFL insider has highlighted his name as a possible future buyer driven by his wealth and regional ties. However, no official sale, offer, or ownership change has been confirmed.
