NFL teams don’t have to work all that hard to cover their expenses these days, with each collecting an estimated $323 million from the league’s national media and sponsorship deals during the 2023 season before selling a single ticket. But the Dallas Cowboys aren’t thinking about breaking even—they’re breaking the bank. The world’s most valuable sports team, worth $10.1 billion, is also the world’s most profitable, with Jerry Jones’ ’Boys hauling in an estimated $564 million in operating income in 2023. The second-most-profitable team, the Los Angeles Rams, barely reached half that figure, at $286 million, while the New England Patriots landed at No. 3 with $261 million. In all, the 20 most profitable sports teams feature nine NFL franchises, along with five from the NBA, three from the NHL and three from England’s Premier League. Together, they generated an estimated $3.9 billion in profit during the most recent season with available data, or an average of $195 million per team—up 12% from the previous year’s top 20.
