It's not just Mike Brown's side of the family that owns shares I'm sure Pete and Robin Browns families have shares too.
Modern NFL contracts require liquid cash for guaranteed portions of salary. While we don’t know what the Bengals have on hand, they’re negotiating strategies and loss of players due to more guaranteed money being offered lead us to believe that they don’t have the liquid cash that many other ownerships do. Meaning, They are going to be at a disadvantage in perpetuity until they find more liquid cash. A limited partnership opportunity, and subsequent cash injection, could solve a lot of the Bengals contract woes. And hopefully, put a reasonable voice in the ownership room.
