Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Forbes reported that the NFL saw a 20 percent drop in revenue in 2020. Operating income during that time plummeted from $109 million per team to $7.1, as well.
However, the organization has seen a good amount of money coming in, which has boosted team value by 14 percent for the 2021 season. In March 2021, a media rights deal signed by the organization brought in $111.8 billion and will increase the NFL teams’ national media rights payouts from $220 million to $377 million by 2032. This is excluding a $1.5 billion annual amount from NFL Sunday Ticket deals through DirecTV, along with successes from the NFL’s venture capital arm.
Forbes noted that some NFL teams are still worth more than others, starting with the Dallas Cowboys. Owned by Jerry Jones, the team was valued at $6.5 billion and had an operating income of $280.4 million. The New England Patriots came in after that at a total value of $5 billion. Both organizations saw a 14 percent change in value over the past year. After that, Forbes listed the New York Giants as the third-most profitable team in the NFL, followed by the Los Angeles Rams and Washington Football Team in number four and five, respectively.
