The Commanders announced in November that Snyder and his wife, Tanya, the franchise’s co-CEO, had hired Bank of America to consider possible transactions involving the franchise. The team has not said whether the Snyders will sell all or part of the franchise.
Fertitta and his representatives did not respond to requests for comments on Saturday night, according to the Washington Post.
In addition to owning the Rockets, Fertitta is chairman and CEO of the Landry’s Inc. hospitality group, and he is also chairman of the board of regents for the University of Houston system.
Fertitta has owned the Rockets since his $2.2-billion purchase of the franchise was approved in October 2017.
