EAGAN, Minn. -- NFL owners are expected to vote to change the league's ownership structure Tuesday, allowing private equity firms to purchase limited stakes in NFL teams, according to ESPN and multiple reports.

The owners flew to Minnesota for a special session called by NFL commissioner Roger Goodell, where they are expected to approve allowing the sale of up to 10% of a stake in a franchise to a select number of private equity firms the league has vetted at over the last few months, according to ESPN and multiple reports.
