In announcing the sale to American Energy, Pegula said he still retains what he called "significant oil and gas assets" in Colorado, Wyoming, New York, West Virginia and his native Pennsylvania.
The Bills were last valued at $870 million, but are expected to sell for at least $1 billion, partly because NFL teams rarely go on the market.
A Toronto-based group fronted by rocker Jon Bon Jovi has also expressed interest in buying the Bills. But it's not clear whether the Bon Jovi group was selected to advance in the sale process.
The next step is for approved groups to advance is to meet with both Morgan Stanley and members of the estate to obtain the franchise's financial information.
Once that is done in the coming weeks, groups will then be asked to submit formal bids. The bidding process is unsealed, meaning Wilson's estate will have the ability to ask groups to increase their bids.
GO TERRY!!
