Washington States New Tax: Seahawks Impact and Adaptation
Washington states new 9.9% tax on incomes over $1 million, set to start in 2028, will affect the Seattle Seahawks, as most players salaries fall into this category. This change eliminates the teams tax advantage in recruiting free agents. However, most fans and analysts arent concerned, as three-quarters of NFL teams already deal with state income taxes. The Seahawks can adapt by getting creative with contracts and cap space to keep net pay competitive. They might focus on extending young stars contracts before the tax takes effect. Despite this shift, expect business as usual for the Seahawks, as theyre not heavy spenders in free agency.
