What happened: The Los Angeles Rams rank second at $12.7 billion, followed by the New York Giants at $12 billion. The New England Patriots are valued at $10.4 billion, just ahead of the New York Jets at $10.35 billion.
Why it matters: Three NFC teams occupy the first three spots, while two AFC East rivals complete the top five. The valuations establish benchmarks for future ownership transactions and minority-stake sales.
By the numbers: The five clubs carry a combined value of $60.95 billion. Dallas leads Los Angeles by $2.8 billion, while only $50 million separates New England and the Jets.
What to watch: Future franchise transactions will test the estimates against actual sale prices.
