Report: Steelers’ Minority Owner Potentially ‘Nearing A Deal’ To Buy Commanders

Another Pittsburgh Steelers minority owner may be leaving the Steelers and buying his own NFL team. Minority owner Josh Harris is expected to buy the Washington Commanders for a little under $6 billion according to Ian Rapoport.

Josh Harris' group is, in fact, nearing a deal to buy the #Commanders for just under $6B, sources say. Nothing is final or has been sent to the league. The bid still must be submitted and approved. But it is getting closer. https://t.co/SXVRItAh0L
