The Carolina Panthers are for sale, and athletes and celebrities alike are wanting ownership.

Panthers owner Jerry Richardson, who is in the midst of an investigation accusing him of sexual misconduct and using racist language, announced he's selling the NFL team after the season.

Rapper/mogul Diddy jumped on the opportunity, tweeting that he wants to buy the Panthers.

He posted a photo of him from 2003 wearing a Julius Peppers jersey and addressed the NFL's owners: 'It's time for Black ownership!!'

Not long after, unemployed Colin Kaepernick - a free agent quarterback who has yet to find a job with a team with two weeks left this season - chimed in.

'I want in on the ownership group! Let's make it happen!' tweeted Kaepernick, the former San Francisco 49ers QB who hasn't found a team since he first knelt on the sidelines during the playing of the national anthem last year.

Sean 'Diddy' Combs Wants to Buy the Carolina Panthers Jerry Richardson, the current owner of the Carolina Panthers, announced on Sunday that he is selling the team. Shortly after he expressed his desire to sell the team, potential buyers began expressing interest Including P. Diddy. "I would be the best NFL owner that you could imagine. I will immediately address the Colin Kaepernick situation and put him in the running for next year’s starting quarterback." NBA All-Star Stephen Curry jumped in as well.

He recently filed a grievance against the NFL, alleging that he remains unsigned as a result of collusion by owners.

Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry joined in as well.

'I want in,' Curry tweeted.

On Instagram, Diddy said his plans are to put Kaepernick in the running for next year's starting quarterback and also have "the best halftime show, the best selection of music, and we will win Super Bowl."
