Seattle Sea Dragons Info


The Seattle Sea Dragons are a football team competing in the Xtreme Football League (XFL). They are one of the eight teams who are playing in XFL 2023. The Seattle franchise was originally known as the Seattle Dragons when they were established in 2018 to play in the first season of the XFL. Ever since the XFL got new ownership, the Seattle team was rebranded as the Seattle Sea Dragons. The Seattle Sea Dragons were the first team to score a touchdown in the inaugural season of the XFL in 2020. They currently compete in the North Division of the XFL.
