Daniel Snyder has bigger fish to fry with the Feds after him, so he may be ready to part ways with his franchise sooner rather than later.
Amazon’s Jeff Bezos and rap mogul Jay-Z are reportedly among the high-profile names interested in purchasing the Washington Commanders from Dan Snyder.
Charlotte Triggs and Natasha Dye of People reported Bezos is “looking into buying the Washington Commanders,” while TMZ Sports added that a possible partnership between Bezos and Jay-Z is “on the table.”
Bezos has a net worth of at least $125 billion, so paying a price tag of $6 billion would be nothing to him. The Amazon founder’s interest in purchasing an NFL team dates back to 2019 and he may finally get his wish.
Jay-Z previously held a small ownership stake in the Brooklyn Nets NBA franchise.

Bezos, who owns The Washington Post, is already in the NFL circle as Amazon has exclusive streaming rights to “Thursday Night Football” on Prime Video, an 11-year deal which reportedly cost the company $11 billion.
This has to be welcome news for Washington Commanders fans who have been wanting Snyder gone for years.
