Jody Allen just presided over a Super Bowl victory with the Seattle Seahawks' win, but she may not preside over the team much longer. Allen, the sister of the late Microsoft cofounder Paul G. Allen, owns the team as principal owner of the Paul G. Allen Trust, which took ownership following his death in 2018. While she led the team to victory in Super Bowl LX — and was praised for her leadership — it might be her last hurrah with the team before selling it.
Main Idea: Business Insider reviews the billionaire owners of NFL teams, focusing on how they got their teams, how those teams have performed, and how players rated their ownership.
Key Points:
Big NFL owner wealth can widen gaps in power, while poor team choices or workplace issues can hurt stadium workers, fans, and nearby businesses.
Strong owners can fund better facilities and winning teams, which can lift jobs, local spending, and community pride.
