Maybe Dan Snyder can take a hint after all.

But there’s no pity allowed for the embattled Washington Commanders owner seemingly on the verge of being forced out of the richest sports league in history.

Snyder might be the despised one who leaves in disgrace but sells his NFL franchise for a record money grab.

Of course, that’s not exactly justice. But if the Denver Broncos could fetch $4.65 billion earlier this year in the sale to Walmart heir Rob Walton & Co., what does that make the Commanders worth?

Let the floor for the bidding start at $5 billion, with $6 billion not out of the question.

One thing seems certain: If Snyder is indeed intent in cashing in his chips, the sale of the once-signature franchise in the nation’s capital – which sold for $750 million to Snyder and partners in 1999 – will shatter the record that was just established in August by the Broncos.

“I would wager any amount on that,” an NFL owner, speaking on the condition of anonymity, told USA TODAY Sports. The owner did not want to be identified because he is not privy to details regarding the possibility that Snyder is selling out.

“It’s Washington D.C.,” he added. “That has a unique appeal. It’s special.”
