Every week that the Washington Commanders aren’t sold, worry begins to creep into the minds of the team’s longtime fans.
Earlier this month, multiple reports — one from Front Office Sports and one from JP Finlay — said a sale is expected soon.
With Super Bowl LVII approaching, you probably will not hear a lot regarding the sale of Washington over the next two weeks. The NFL likes to keep the focus squarely on the big game, especially next week.
However, on Sunday, Jay Glazer of FOX Sports was answering fan questions and, no surprise, one of the questions posed to Glazer was regarding the sale of the Commanders. Remember, Glazer was the first one back in November to report a timeline for a potential Washington sale.
What was Glazer’s latest regarding a Commanders’ sale?
“Sooner than later,” Glazer said. “This whole time, they’ve wanted to get something done where they could basically vote on it at March NFL owner’s meetings. Where all the owners could vote. And after it becomes official, the sale has to be agreed on before that. So the latest you’re looking at is the end of March.”

Nothing new there. It’s along the lines of what Finlay said two weeks ago. While Washington would prefer things happen before the start of the new league year on March 15, that always seemed a bit too optimistic.
Glazer is one of the more respected NFL reporters, and he’s always maintained this timeline, which bodes well for the sale to become official in March.
