What NFL Team Makes the Most Money?
The answer may surprise you. The Dallas Cowboys are the most valuable NFL franchise, worth an estimated $4.8 billion.
The Green Bay Packers
The Green Bay Packers are the most profitable NFL team, generating an impressive $376 million in revenue in 2019. This is largely due to the team’s strong fan base and lucrative television contracts. The Packers are also one of the league’s most valuable teams, worth an estimated $2.85 billion.
The Packers are the only publicly-owned team in the NFL
The Packers are the only publicly-owned, nonprofit corporation in the National Football League and are also the oldest such entity in North America, having been organized in 1919. The team was founded as a community-owned non-profit corporation and is led by a board of directors elected each year by shareholders. It is the only community-owned major professional sports team in the United States. Green Bay Packers, Inc., reached a record number of 356,000 shareholders in 2011.
The Packers have a waiting list of over 130,000 people for season tickets
As the only publicly-owned team in the NFL, the Green Bay Packers are owned by over 360,000 shareholders. The team is worth an estimated $2.85 billion, and it is the most valuable franchise in the NFL.
The Packers have a waiting list of over 130,000 people for season tickets, and Lambeau Field is often referred to as “the frozen tundra” because of the cold weather games that are played there. The Packers have won 13 NFL championships, more than any other team in the league, and they are the only team to have won three consecutive championships.
The Packers have made it to the playoffs 27 times, more than any other team in the NFL
The Green Bay Packers are a professional American football team based in Green Bay, Wisconsin. The Packers compete in the National Football League (NFL) as a member club of the league’s National Football Conference (NFC) North division. It is the third-oldest franchise in the NFL, dating back to 1919, and is the only non-profit, community-owned major league professional sports team in the United States. Home games have been played at Lambeau Field since 1957.
The Packers are the last of the “small town teams” which were common in the NFL during the league’s early days of 1922–1923. Founded in 1919 by earl “Curly” Lambeau and George Whitney Calhoun, the franchise traces its lineage to other semi-professional teams in Green Bay dating back to 1896. Between 1919 and 1920, the Packers competed against other semi-pro clubs from around Wisconsin and Michigan, before joining the American Professional Football Association (APFA), now known as the NFL, in 1921. Although Green Bay is by far the smallest major league professional sports market in North America, Forbes ranked the Packers as being worth $1.358 billiony despite revenue of $282 million due to Lambeau Field having 160 corporate suites that generate about $40 million per year and revenue sharing under terms of the collective bargaining agreement with other NFL clubs that was enacted after their most recent Super Bowl victory in 2010.
The Dallas Cowboys
The Dallas Cowboys are the most valuable franchise in the NFL, worth an estimated $4.8 billion. The Cowboys are also the highest-earning franchise, generating an estimated $700 million in revenue each year. The Cowboys have been able to achieve this level of success due to a number of factors, including their large and loyal fan base, their lucrative television deals, and their successful marketing strategy.
The Cowboys are the most valuable sports franchise in the world
Forbes recently released its annual list of the most valuable sports franchises in the world, and for the 11th consecutive year, the Dallas Cowboys topped the list with a value of $4.8 billion. The Cowboys’ value has increased by 14% since last year, and they are now worth almost $2 billion more than the second-most valuable franchise, the New England Patriots.
The NFL continues to dominate Forbes’ list, with 26 of the 50 most valuable franchises coming from America’s favorite sport. NFL teams make up eight of the top 10 spots on the list, with only baseball’s New York Yankees and soccer’s Real Madrid breaking up the football monopoly.
The Cowboys generate more revenue than any other team in the NFL
Forbes magazine released its annual list of the most valuable sports franchises in the world, and once again, the Dallas Cowboys come in at No. 1 with a value of $4.8 billion. That’s up 13% from last year and $1 billion more than the second-most valuable team, the New England Patriots. The Cowboys’ value has more than doubled in five years.
The increase in value is due to a number of factors, including the team’s new $1.2 billion stadium, which opened in 2009; a lucrative new 25-year partnership with AT&T that will net the team an estimated $500 million; and increases in revenue from merchandising, licensing, and sponsorships. The Cowboys are also the most popular team in the NFL, with their merchandise outselling that of any other team for 11 consecutive years.
So what does this all mean for the average fan? Not much, unfortunately. Ticket prices have increased steadily over the years (the Cowboys now have the highest average ticket price in the NFL), and with Jerry Jones famously saying that he wants to make the Cowboys “the first sports franchise to be worth $5 billion,” it’s unlikely that prices will come down any time soon. But if you’re a fan of America’s Team, you can take solace in knowing that your favorite team is also the richest.
The Cowboys have made it to the playoffs 32 times, more than any other team in the NFL

The New England Patriots
The New England Patriots are the most valuable NFL team, worth an estimated $3.7 billion. That’s $1 billion more than the second most valuable team, the Dallas Cowboys. The Pats have been the most valuable team in the NFL for the past two years, and their value has increased by 25% since 2017.

Prior to 2001, they appeared three times on Sunday Night Football and once each on Thanksgiving Day and Thursday Night Football dating back to when those respective nights first gained prominence as primetime broadcasts .
The Pats have been placed among pro football’s Top 10 dynasty lists by sporting news outlets such as ESPN (#1),[2] Bleacher Report,[3] and USA Today.[4][5] Their rivalry with Peyton Manningandthe Indianapolis Colts was called “one of AFC’s best rivalries” by Bleacher Report.[6][7] They have also been featured heavily on Monday Night Countdown during much of quarterback Tom Brady’s career,[8][9] most notably when he threw five touchdown passes against Miami on December 10, 2007 – dubbed “Spygate” – which was immediately followed by emergency broadcaster Don Criqui saying “We now know why Bill Belichick is considered one of greatest coaches ever.”[10][11]

Under Kraft’s stewardship, the Patriots have become one of the most recognizable and successful sports teams in the world.
The Patriots’ success on and off the field has made them one of the most popular teams in the NFL.

In particular, they have been able to sign some of the league’s top players to long-term contracts, ensuring that they will remain competitive for years to come.
