SEATTLE -- Jody Allen, the de facto owner of the NFL's Seattle Seahawks and NBA's Portland Trail Blazers, said in a statement Tuesday that the teams are not currently for sale but eventually will be.
Allen's statement comes on the heels of last month's report from ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski that Nike founder Phil Knight and Los Angeles Dodgers part-owner Alan Smolinsky made an unsolicited offer of more than $2 billion to buy the Blazers. Jody Allen has been the trustee of the Paul G. Allen Trust since her brother, the Microsoft co-founder, died in 2018.
