PHILADELPHIA — The most dysfunctional team in the NFL is trading the worst owner of the modern era for one of the best in the NBA and NHL.
An NBA source confirmed Thursday that longtime D.C. football fan Josh Harris and his group of investors, which includes Magic Johnson, have agreed to buy the Washington Commanders from Daniel Snyder for about $6 billion. Snyder was pressured to sell the team by his peers. He and the franchise recently have faced multiple investigations regarding improper finances, witness intimidation, and fostering a toxic workplace environment.
Harris has no such baggage.
