NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell addressed recent reports suggesting a 'soft' market for the sale of the Seattle Seahawks.According to an unnamed team owner, there were claims that interest in the team was weak.

Goodell, speaking after the quarterly ownership meetings in Orlando, refuted these reports, calling them inaccurate and emphasizing that there has been substantial interest in the franchise.He noted that the sale process, which began in February, is moving forward and will remain confidential until it is complete.Expectations for the final sale price have been in the range of $9 billion to $11 billion.

While public details of potential buyers have been limited, it is possible that interested parties are waiting for the right timing before making an official offer.Goodell stressed that the league will carefully review any eventual bids as part of the approval process.

The commissioner’s statements aim to reassure stakeholders that the market for the Seahawks remains robust despite earlier speculation suggesting otherwise.
