There are currently no African American majority owners in Major League Baseball, the National Basketball Association, or the National Hockey League.
The New York Jets, the Seattle Seahawks, and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers have African American minority owners.
The New York Jets, the Seattle Seahawks, and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers all have African American minority owners. Each team has one African American minority owner, and they are all equal partners with the white majority owners. This means that, although they are not the majority owners of their respective teams, they still have a significant say in team operations and decisions.
African American ownership in the NFL is still relatively rare, but it is slowly increasing. In addition to the three teams mentioned above, the Jacksonville Jaguars also have an African American minority owner. It is believed that there are also several other African American individuals who own minority shares in various NFL teams.
