The report comes days after Cohen told lawmakers on Capitol Hill last week that he never asked for a pardon from Trump, and that he would not accept one.

The WSJ article noted there was no evidence that Cohen himself asked for a pardon or was aware of the alleged pardon discussions. If a pardon was not an option, Ryan left the impression that his client Cohen might flip and cooperate with investigators from the Manhattan U.S. attorney's office, the paper added.
