The 2020 Seattle Dragons season was the first season for the Seattle Dragons as a professional American football franchise. They played as charter members of the XFL, one of eight teams to compete in the league for the 2020 season. The Dragons played their home games at CenturyLink Field and were led by head coach Jim Zorn.

Their inaugural season was cut short due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the XFL officially suspended operations for the remainder of the season on March 20, 2020.[1]
