NFL
The NFL is once again handing a record revenue share to its 32 franchises this year. The league sent each team $432.6 million as part of the NFL’s national revenue sharing from the previous fiscal year. While those figures are generally kept private, they are revealed through the Green Bay Packers each season. The Packers are the only publicly owned team in the league, which requires them to reveal their financials on a yearly basis.
