Report: Jeff Bezos Hires Firm to Evaluate Commanders Bid

Bezos has employed Allen & Company, which is a New York-based investment firm that specializes in transactions involving sports franchises.

Allen & Company was involved in two of the most recent sales involving NFL franchises: the Panthers in 2018 and the Broncos in ’22.
