Business moguls Jay-Z and Jeff Bezos are in discussions about a potential joint venture.
According to two people with knowledge of the discussions, the founders of Roc Nation and Amazon are considering a possible combined offer for the Washington Commanders.
It's unclear if the two have already discussed the subject with Dan Snyder and Tanya Snyder, the NFL team's current owners.
An insider with knowledge of the situation earlier on Thursday told CNN that Bezos was thinking about purchasing the squad.
The Snyders said on Wednesday that they were considering selling the franchise and that they had retained Bank of America Securities "to evaluate potential deals."
A Commanders spokeswoman declined to comment on the Amazon founder's potential interest in the team when contacted and stated that "we are not commenting on who has or has not expressed interest."
Roc Nation has been contacted by CNN for comment.
When contacted by CNN on Thursday, the NFL chose not to respond.
Jay-Z and Bezos share close links to the sports world.
