Amazon founder Jeff Bezos has been barred from the opportunity to place a bid to buy the NFL club Washington Commanders<\/a>, according to The Athletic.<\/p>\n

Washington owner Dan Snyder continues his efforts to sell the club, holding out for a $6 billion bid for the franchise, but Bank of America\u2013which has been guiding the current Washington owner through various potential sale options\u2013has told Bezos he will not be allowed to submit a bid of his own.<\/p>\n

It was previously reported in January that Dan and Tanya Snyder “preferred not to sell” the franchise to Bezos, and it doesn’t seem they have changed their stance.<\/p>\n

The New York Post indicated on Friday that Snyder was preventing the Amazon CEO from entering the private auction.<\/p>\n

The Snyder’s reportedly \u201chold a grudge\u201d against Bezos, because he is the owner of the Washington Post, which had previously reported on the Commanders\u2019 \u201ctoxic workplace culture\u201d under Snyder.<\/p>\n

The Washington Post published a series of stories documenting a culture of sexual harassment at the team that ultimately helped build the pressure to sell.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
