Washington Commanders owner Dan Snyder revealed back in November that he plans to sell the organization after a criminal investigation emerged against the franchise. His latest decision may be even more of an indication that he will indeed be selling the Commanders’ organization.
According to Fox5, Snyder is reportedly selling his estate in Potomac, MD, for $49 million. If he ends up getting as much as he is asking for his estate, it would be the most expensive home sale in DMV history.
This breaks a previous record that he set on the purchase of another home in the DMV area, purchasing an estate that he still owns in Alexandria, Virginia for $48 million in 2021.
The house has reportedly been up for sale privately for several years. However, this is the first time the estate will hit the open market.
Michael Neibauer of the Washington Business Journal also detailed that the 58-year-old “hasn’t lived in the home for a while.”
The estate is certainly luxurious, including five bedrooms, and 13.5 bathrooms along with amenities such as a gym, spa, library, wine cellar, and theater.

Many Commanders fans took notice of this decision by Snyder, and are hoping that this means that a potential sale of the Commanders’ organization could happen sooner rather than later.
Like so many things during his tenure, Dan Snyder is simply bad at trying to put out tactical leaks and smokescreens via the media.
They’re always incredibly easy to recognize and sniff-out if you know what to look for.
So my take? Relax, he’s selling 100% and leaving.

It seems inevitable that Dan Snyder will either sell the Commanders willingly or ultimately be forced to do so by his fellow NFL owners.
