data-mm-id=”_9t757bj84″>The NFL has a ton of money running through it and that has only increased over the past 20 years. Not only do the teams make incredible amounts of money annually, but the league's franchise owners are extremely wealthy as it is. But which team has the richest owner? Well, there's a clear answer, and it's a new kid on the block, so to speak. What follows is a look at the NFL's 10 richest owners. Just want to caveat this by saying the world of estimated net worth is always shifting. This is the best we could do with the available information. Who is the richest NFL owner?1. Rob Walton, Denver BroncosS. Robson Walton (or Rob), is a member of the Walton family, of Walmart fame. In the summer of 2022 he bought the Broncos from the estate of the late Pat Bowlen for $4.65 billion. It was a drop in the bucket for good old Rob. At last check, Walton was worth an estimated $63.4 billion. He's by far the richest NFL owner. 2. David Tepper, Carolina PanthersTepper is the founder of Appaloosa Management, a global hedge fund that exploded in the early 2000s to earn him almost unimaginable wealth. Tepper bought the Panthers from Jerry Richardson in May of 2018 for $2.2 billion. While the team has had virtually no success on the field since Tepper took over, it's not for a lack of money. The 66-year-old is worth an estimated $20.6 billion.3. Jody Allen, Seattle SeahawksWhen Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen died in 2018, his sister Jody became executor of his estate. A businesswoman, entrepreneur and philanthropist in her own right, Jody Allen now controls the Seahawks, Portland Trail Blazers and Seattle Sounders among many other pieces of her brother's trust. That trust currently has an estimated value of around $20.3 billion. 4. Hunt Family, Kansas City ChiefsWhile Clark Hunt is the chairman and CEO of the Chiefs, the franchise is actually owned by the entire Hunt family. Lamar Hunt owned the team after he used inherited oil wealth to help found the American Football League. He first owned the Dallas Texans before moving the team to Kansas City and rebranded them in 1963. When Hunt died in 2006, control of the team passed to his family, which currently has an estimated net worth of $15.5 billion. 5. Stan Kroenke, Los Angeles RamsKroenke is also part of the Walton family through his wife Ann Walton Kroenke. The pair married in 1974 and Kroenke founded the real estate development from the Kroenke Group in 1983. In 1999, he founded Kroenke Sports & Entertainment which owns Ball Arena in Denver. He owns the two teams that play there, the Denver Nuggets and Colorado Avalanche. He also owns the Colorado Rapids and Arsenal. After years of being a minority owner of the St. Louis Rams, he purchased the rest of the team in 2010. The NFL made him transfer ownership of the Nuggets and Avalanche to his wife. He then slowly engineered the franchise's move to Los Angeles, where he all but single-handedly paid for the construction of SoFi Stadium. At present, Kroenke is worth $15.7 billion. 6. Jerry Jones, Dallas CowboysYou knew Jones would be on this list somewhere. Jones made his fortune by started Jones Oil and Land Lease out of Arkansas. Eventually he made enough money to purchase the Cowboys from Bum Bright for $140 million in 1989. It was a pretty good deal when you realize the franchise is now worth around $9 billion. Jones himself has only gotten wealthier and is currently worth an estimated $13.8 billion.7. Shahid Khan, Jacksonville JaguarsKhan is the owner of Flex-N-Gate and Bumper Works, which supplies bumpers to the Big Three automakers. The international automotive parts supplier is one of the biggest in the U.S. That has made Khan a ton of money. He bought the Jaguars in 2011 for $770 million. The franchise is now worth an estimated $4 billion. Nice purchase. He also owns Fulham F.C. and All Elite Wrestling, which is run by his son Tony. In all, Khan is estimated to be worth $11.6 billion. 8. Robert Kraft, New England PatriotsKraft founded International Forest Products in 1972 after taking over the Rand-Whitney Group in 1968. He combined the two companies to make up the largest privately held paper and packaging companies in the United States. He purchased the Patriots for $172 million in 1994. It was a good investment, seeing as how the Pats are currently worth an estimated $6.7 billion. Kraft himself is worth $11.1 billion. 9. Woody and Christopher Johnson, New York JetsThe Johnson family of Johnson & Johnson fame, purchased the Jets in 2000. Brothers Woody and Christopher Johnson run the team and while their finances are technically separate, the family's wealth is estimated to be at a combined $10.7 billion. The former United States Ambassador to the United Kingdom, Woody Johnson is worth an estimated $3.2 billion on his own. 10. Stephen Ross, Miami DolphinsRoss was a tax attorney prior to founding Related Companies, a real estate development firm, in 1972. The firm's real estate profile is extensive, and the company has since diversified and now owns brands like Equinox Fitness Clubs and SoulCycle. Ross purchased 50 percent of the Dolphins for $550 million in 2008, then bought an additional 45 percent of the team, with the total price coming out to $1.1 billion. Ross is currently estimated to be worth $10.1 billion.

They might have given us a lovers tiff or two on the pitch but, as a key Valentine s Day engagement arrives, Paris Saint-Germain forwards Neymar and Edinson Cavani have shown themselves to be the hottest couple in Europe.
Neymar and Cavani can spearhead PSG s bid to unseat Real Madrid at the Santiago Bernabeu on Wednesday knowing no two players in Europe s top five leagues this season have combined more often for goals than the seven their partnership has yielded.
Cavani surpassed PSG s all-time scoring record with the help of five Neymar assists, while also laying on a couple of goals for the Brazilian. Perhaps tellingly, no Madrid duo make the rundown.

Manchester United s goalless draw with Sevilla in the Champions League on Wednesday highlighted two facts we already knew: Jose Mourinho s side are unadventurous but incredibly hard to beat, and David de Gea is a genius.
The Spain goalkeeper added one more to his catalogue of best saves towards the end of the first half, producing a quite remarkable reaction stop to deny Luis Muriel s close-range header.
It was a moment that dominated plenty of the post-match talk (at least, when nobody was discussing Paul Pogba) and underlined why De Gea is widely considered the best goalkeeper in England and, perhaps, the world.
Well, the former is certainly true, if Opta s data for the 2017-18 Premier League season is anything to go by

Premier League trio Arsenal, Swansea City and Queens Park Rangers have also been linked with a move for the 21 year old right-back, though it is the French champions who are favourites to complete a deal.
Aurier scored six goals in thirty-four Ligue 1 appearances for Toulouse last season while internationally he played every minute of his countries unsuccessful World Cup campaign in Brazil this summer.
He has spent his entire professional career so far in France having started out with Lens, for whom he made fifty-four senior appearances before moving to the Stadium Municipal in January 2012.

Brendan Rodgers has warned his striker Luis Suarez to be on his best behaviour if he is to fulfil his world-class potential.
The Uruguayan’s time in the Premier League has been a mixture of controversy and impressive performances, but more often than not it has been the former which has made the headlines.
Most recently, Suarez was banned for 10 games by the Football Association for biting Branislav Ivanovic and it is this sort of behaviour which boss Rodgers feels could be hampering both himself and his club.
The Liverpool manager claimed that Suarez can never be called a great player while he continues to be involved in situations such as this and said the club wanted to help improve his image.
Everyone isn’t perfect, Rodgers said. If you have a s…
Barcelona could not compete financially with Paris Saint-Germain if the French champions approach Lionel Messi, presidential candidate Agusti Benedito has conceded.
Six-time Ballon d Or winner Messi failed in an attempt to engineer a move away from Camp Nou in the close season but is due to become a free agent at the end of this campaign, meaning he is able to open talks with other clubs from next month.
Manchester City and Inter have been strongly linked with the Argentina international, but reports from Spain last week suggested PSG are the frontrunners for Messi s signature, although his father and agent Jorge has since labelled that speculation false .
