Report: Sean “Diddy” Combs & Colin Kaepernick Serious About Buying Panthers
Charles Robinson of Yahoo Sports, citing two sources, reports that Sean “Diddy” Combs is serious about making a push to purchase the Carolina Panthers franchise now that Jerry Richardson intends to sell his take in the team.
According to Robinson, free agent QB Colin Kaepernick is expected to be a part of Combs’ ownership group and he has already begun reaching out to a handful of business leaders, venture capitalists and sports icons to discuss a potential ownership group.
Robinson mentions that Combs and Kaepernick are looking to create an ownership group that more closely represents the racial makeup of the league’s players, which is about 70 percent African-American.
