The Washington Commanders sale to the Josh Harris group could be completed in the next "month to two months at the most," Jim Irsay said.

Irsay, owner of the Indianapolis Colts, is a member of the NFL's finance committee.

"We're not done yet," Irsay said, "but we're making progress ... It was a good meeting."

On May 12, Harris entered into a signed exclusive deal with owners Dan and Tanya Snyder to buy the team for $6.05 billion.

"It's going well," Irsay said. "I'm hopeful because of their inspired aspect and their enthusiasm and their track record that they're really committing, saying, 'Well if that doesn't work then I'll make it right. Either way, we're going to make it right.' So we're just trying to work through those final details. And I'm hopeful that we'll be able to. I would imagine something in mid to late July would be the earliest we'd call it league meeting."

Josh Harris, who reached an agreement to buy the Washington Commanders last month, will meet with the NFL's finance committee Wednesday, multiple sources confirmed to ESPN.

It's another step towards a possible vote by NFL owners to approve the sale this summer.

Harris has been working with the NFL to make the required adjustments to his offer to complete the sale, a source told ESPN. He'll meet with the eight finance committee members in New York.

The Washington Post first reported the meeting.
