Amazon Founder Jeff Bezos Reportedly Interested in Buying NFL Team and Has Support From Other Owners
Could there be a major move for an NFL team coming in the near future? It sure looks that way. Over the weekend, it's been reported Amazon founder Jeff Bezos, one of the richest men in the world, is interested in buying an NFL team.
To add even more intrigue to this story, per CBS reporter Jason La Canfora, Bezos has the support of multiple NFL owners in his quest to land his own team.
Among the owners in Bezos' corner La Canfora writes is Jerry Jones. Hey, that's some pretty good company to have, as Jones sure knows what it takes to own a successful team.
Bezos, who sat in Roger Goodell's suite during the Super Bowl last winter, looks like he really wants to make this dream become a reality within the next few years. Which team could he en up buying, though? Perhaps the Seahawks, with former owner Paul Allen recently passing away. What about the Redskins?
Obviously, this will be something to monitor moving forward. Bezos sure has the money to make this happen. We'll just have to see if someone will be willing to hand the keys of an organization over.
