Members of the NFL’s finance committee raised concerns about Josh Harris’s tentative $6.05 billion deal to purchase the Commanders from Daniel Snyder, slowing momentum of the sale. The eight-owner committee discussed it during a meeting Wednesday.

The reservations expressed during a meeting of the eight-owner finance committee do not mean that Harris’s deal will be rejected, those people said. They said the committee must spend more time examining the financial aspects, and one of them said it seems increasingly unlikely the owners can vote to approve the transaction, even on a conditional basis, during their May 22-23 meeting in Minneapolis.

Others connected to the process said they remained confident the deal will go through eventually, while conceding the timing of approval by the league and the owners is more uncertain now. The major obstacles to completion of the deal, in their view, remain the NFL’s dealings with Snyder, not with Harris.

But the issues raised during the finance committee meeting Wednesday seemed to put the brakes on that timetable.
