New Seahawks Owner Addresses Mounting Relocation Rumors

Seattle Seahawks owner is setting the record straight after he previously said “never say never” about moving the NFL team.

The Seattle Seahawks' current owner, Vinod Khosla, has publicly addressed the recent relocation rumors that have been circulating. In a statement on X, Khosla affirmed that there are no plans to move the team, and that the idea has never been discussed. He assured fans that the team's future remains secure in Seattle. Khosla emphasized that he is committed to being a steward of the franchise and maintaining what Paul Allen established.

He also clarified that while he won't rule out any possibility, there are no current plans to alter the team's operations, including the coach, president, or the Lumen Field stadium. However, he noted that he has never made a formal commitment to keep the team in Seattle indefinitely. The misunderstanding of his previous remarks has caused unnecessary distress among fans and media alike. Despite this, the statement from Khosla provides a sense of reassurance to Seahawks supporters.
