Jody Allen's Seattle Seahawks: A Legacy of Success and Value

The Seattle Seahawks are gearing up to compete in Super Bowl LX on February 8. The team is owned by Jody Allen, who took control of the franchise after the passing of her brother, Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen, in 2018. The Seahawks are valued at $6.7 billion, making them one of the most valuable sports franchises globally and the 14th most valuable in the NFL. Jody Allen has expressed intentions to eventually sell the Seahawks and the Portland Trail Blazers, as outlined in the Trust, but no sale negotiations have commenced as of January 2026.

Paul Allen purchased the Seahawks in 1997 for around $200 million to prevent the team from relocating to Los Angeles. Under his leadership, the Seahawks became a successful franchise, reaching three Super Bowls and winning one. Following Paul Allen's passing, Jody Allen assumed ownership of the team. Despite not making significant spending moves, the Seahawks have maintained a strong record under Jody Allen's ownership, boasting a 79-48 regular-season record and being 25% more efficient with their money than the league average team.

Thanks to Jody Allen's guidance, the Seahawks head into the Super Bowl as favorites to secure their second championship title. They are currently favored by 4.5 points on DraftKings Sportsbook, with a total point set at 45.5. The Moneyline odds stand at -230 for Seattle and +190 for New England.
