The franchise has grown its revenue and market value incredibly. Last year, the team made $1.05 billion, becoming the second franchise in history to top $1 billion in revenue, surpassing the record of FC Barcelona.
As the Cowboys became the most valuable sports franchise in the world, the franchise will garner a lot of attention in the upcoming season. The team has a strong roster with Dak Prescott as the quarterback and is poised to achieve more success in the future.
Chiefs don’t even come close to the list with $3.7 billion valuation
The Kansas City Chiefs was one of the most prominent teams in the previous season. The team won the Super Bowl and broke many records. But still, the Chiefs are not even close to the list of the top 10 most valuable franchises.
The team ranks at the 19th spot with a $3.7 billion evaluation. Despite having an incredible 2023 season, the team couldn’t beat the Cowboys’ valuation record.
This valuation is derived from various factors which include local and national revenues the team earns. The market value of the team is also considered excluding any sort of business that was held by the owner of the franchise. Based on these factors, the Cowboys is the most valuable NFL franchise this year.
As the 2023 NFL regular season starts all eyes will be on the Dallas Cowboys. It will be exciting to watch how well the most valuable sports franchise will perform and will the Chiefs, the Super Bowl-winning team, be able to increase its value this season.
