Seahawks Ownership Vote Set for August

The NFL's owners will gather on an unspecified day in August 2026 to vote on the bid from a group led by multibillionaire Vinod Khosla to buy the Seattle Seahawks for $9.612 billion. Khosla's prior approval for a minority stake in the 49ers will simplify part of the process. likesport.biz

The key question will be structuring the deal, though there's no indication it won't be approved. The most memorable ownership failure came in 1998 when novelist Tom Clancy attempted to buy the Vikings for $200 million while contributing only $5 million in cash.
