The Seattle Seahawks is an American football team that plays in the NFL. They are based in Seattle. The Seahawks are a team in the National Football League (NFL). They are part of the National Football Conference (NFC) West, which they returned to in 2002 as part of a realignment of the conferences. The Seahawks are the only team to have played in both the AFC and NFC Championship Games. They have won 10 division titles and three conference titles. As part of the deal to merge the AFL and NFL in 1970, the NFL started making plans to grow from 26 to 28 teams. In June 1972, a group of Seattle business and community leaders called Seattle Professional Football Inc. said they wanted to buy an NFL team for the city. The NFL gave the city an expansion franchise in June 1974. In December of that year, NFL Commissioner Pete Rozelle announced that the franchise agreement had been signed by Lloyd W. Nordstrom, representing the Nordstrom family as the consortium’s majority partner.

The Seattle Seahawks made some significant moves during the offseason, bolstering their secondary by acquiring All-Pro safety Jamal Adams from the New York Jets in exchange for safety Bradley McDougald, first- and third-round picks in 2021, and a first-round pick in 2022, as well as lockdown corner Quinton Dunbar from the Washington Football Team. Also, they signed experienced tight end Greg Olsen away from the Panthers and wide receiver Phillip Dorsett from the Patriots. And Houston Texans running back Carlos Hyde, who rushed for 1070 yards in 2019, to replace the injured Rashaad Penny. Jadeveon Clowney’s decision to join the Tennessee Titans following a protracted free agency impasse was a significant disappointment.
