XFL Unveils Seattle Sea Dragons 2023 Schedule

SEATTLE — The newly revitalized XFL will kick off its season next month, and the Seattle Sea Dragons will take to the field on Feb. 19 to face the D.C. Defenders at Audi Field. The home opener at Lumen Field is scheduled for Feb. 23 against the St. Louis Battlehawks.

The latest iteration of the league, which was revived by investors including Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, features eight teams playing 10 regular season games, followed by two semi-final matchups in late April, with the winners advancing to the championship game on May 13.

The XFL unveiled the full schedule Thursday, and all 43 games will be televised on ESPN, ESPN2, FX, or ABC. Fans will also be able to stream the games through ESPN+.

"Through the global scale and support of Disney and ESPN, our fans will have multiple options to access and experiences the XFL across broadcast, cable, and streaming," said Russ Brandon, the XFL president. "With six weeks until kickoff, we are excited about our partnership and the immersive game day viewing experience that our collaboration will provide viewers."

The league is spilt into two divisions, XFL North and XFL South, which Brandon said is designed to create "instant rivalries." The Seattle Sea Dragons are coached by Jim Haslett, who served as head coach for the New Orleans Saints from 2000-2005 and prior to the XFL was the inside linebackers coach for the Tennessee Titans.

"We're fired up to get in front of our fans and play some football," Haslett said Thursday. "There has been so much success in Seattle sports, and we are excited to be a part of that."

Fans can purchase season tickets on the XFL website, and single-game tickets are scheduled to go on sale next Thursday.
