The bidding war for the Denver Broncos just got a lot hotter. A report has emerged that Magic Johnson has joined a group led by Philadelphia 76ers co-owner Josh Harris and they are seeking to purchase the Broncos.

It is expected the sale of the Denver Broncos will set a new world record for the highest price ever paid for a sports franchise. Ari Meirov (tweet below) suggests that the final sale price could easily eclipse $4 BILLION.

If Magic Johnson, Josh Harris, and the rest of the group spent over $4 billion that would completely dwarf the current highest price ever paid for a sports franchise. The New York Mets were sold to billionaire Steven Cohen for $2.4 billion back in 2020. And London’s Chelsea F.C. is expected to fetch somewhere between $3-$5 billion so it’s also possible this Magic Johnson-Denver Broncos record could fall quickly.

The report from Sportico of Magic Johnson’s interest in the Denver Broncos sent shockwaves through the NFL world on Thursday morning. Here’s what we know so far and reactions from NFL fans and members of the media.
