Bidding For The Bills Has Reportedly Begun
Following the death of Ralph Wilson, a number of rumors surfaced regarding the future of the Buffalo Bills franchise.

The poison pill in the current lease agreement for the Bills requires a huge $400 million payment should a new owner decide to relocate the franchise. In 2020, that number dips under $30 million, which makes the penalty relatively innocuous given the valuation of NFL franchises.
According to QMI Agency for the Toronto Sun, the Bills have now reached out to prospective bidders for the Buffalo franchise. Check out the full report on prospective bidders and their qualifications.
