Jaguars Will Reportedly Be Sold To Shahid Khan; Expected To Remain In Jacksonville
Reports say the Jaguars will be sold to Shahid Khan, who tried to buy the Rams last year. The team is expected to remain in Jacksonville, according to the reports.
Jaguars To Be Sold But Remain In Jacksonville, According To Report
The Jacksonville Jaguars are set to be sold, according to a report from ESPN's Adam Schefter and Chris Mortensen. There's no word on how much of the team will be sold -- a minority or majority share -- or who's buying it but the ESPN report states that they are set to remain in Jacksonville. There's been plenty of speculation over the last year or so that Jacksonville could be the Los Angeles franchise but apparently that's not happening.
Rumors were making the rounds earlier this month that Fred Smith, CEO of FedEx, was prepared to buy a minority share of the team and planned to buy a majority share when Weaver retired. The Jags denied those rumors to our Jaguars blog, Big Cat Country, at the time.
This continues a busy, busy day for the Jaguars who also fired head coach Jack Del Rio and extended the contract of GM Gene Smith for three years on Tuesday.
Visit SB Nation's Big Cat Country for more on the Jags plans to sell the team.

Thanks for the source. This makes sense. Wayne Weaver has always said the only way he would sell if it was to someone who would keep the team in Jacksonville. Not sure how he can hold this new guy to it, but this isn't a huge shock like them leaving.
Okay, upon further reading and not just skimming this is even LESS of a big deal than selling the team. It could just be a minority share!
JFC... No more posting shiit like this without sources! I'm having a meltdown in my office. I actually closed my office door when I read this so I could focus on googling it. lol
I'm so sorry! I went to Google it then got called into a conference call. DAMN work for getting in the way!
